Traded 2021 XSE FWD for 2025 Limited AWD and paid MSRP... happy day

Finally traded in my 2021 XSE FWD for the 2025 Limited AWD, and I paid the MSRP for it! I’m so excited with the upgrade, everything feels so much smoother and more luxurious. It’s been a long wait, but totally worth it .

Damn, the color looks nice! I wanted the same but it wasn’t in stock for ages.

Same here. Ended up with navy, which is fine too.

What are your favorite new features from the upgrade so far?

El Cajon always adds markups to everything.

And how much negative equity are you dealing with?

About 23ish, it’s crazy how much these vans hold their value.

I guess that’s your positive equity, based on your statement.

Are you saying you paid 23k over trade-in?

Yes, that includes taxes and titles too.

It’s surprising to me that people would trade in for the same generation and still have that much of a price difference.

So does that mean the 2021 lost around $18k on trade-in?

@Jeharys
Probably. I have a 2021 XLE and my dealer has been offering $31k for it. I paid $46k OTD back in Feb 2021. Considering a limited is probably $55k OTD, that seems to match up with what you’re saying about paying $23k on top of trade.

@Lesley
Ok, just wanted to be sure I understand it.

Congratulations! Hope you really enjoy it.

Did you have to pay any markups?

It says paid MSRP in the title, so we’ll have to trust the OP on that one.
