Secrets to Selling Your Chevrolet in California
With the Impala, Chevrolet had the fourth best-selling car in the United States in 2005. As American as apple pie, Chevys remain popular, but if you decide that you need to sell your Chevrolet car, truck, or SUV, there are ways to get the best price for your vehicle. However, you might be surprised by what methods don't work when you're getting rid of your auto.
Chevys are Tough, But the Sale Shouldn't Be
The slogan "Chevy Tough" is well known, but that's the last thing you want when you sell your car. Instead, you want your sale to be simple and straightforward. What better way to take care of it than by selling your Chevy yourself? Lots of other people do it, and you can too.
It seems easy enough. You place an ad to sell your Chevrolet sedan, truck, or SUV in the newspaper or a Web site, then wait for the money to come rolling in. There's no middleman to come between you and your cash, and your Chevrolet is old news.
But that's just scratching the surface of this supposedly easy sell. Depending on how much information about your Chevy want to list, you can run up a big bill with the newspaper ad. Not everyone can describe their Chevrolet in three lines or less, especially without a photo.
Fortunately, when you want to sell your Chevy, there's a modern version of the newspaper ads: the online classifieds. Some (though not all) Web sites even let you list your car at no cost. On the positive side, you can usually include a picture of your car, which is a great help for potential buyers.
Funny enough, these methods of selling your Chevrolet may seem different, but they lead to the same results. You'll field calls from potential buyers, then meet up with them and let them test-drive your Chevrolet. If it goes well, you'll also need to haggle until you agree on a price that you both like.
By this time, you've paid for your ad, returned the calls, and met the people who want to buy your truck. That adds up to a lot of time and effort for something that was supposed to be easy.
To cap it off, the car's paperwork awaits you. At the least, you'll have to take care of the smog check and the title transfer, in addition to any forms required by the state DMV.
