A car is not only a means of transportation, but also an investment. For most of us, that investment can pay off biggest when it's time to get a new car -- in the form of a trade-in.
A well-maintained vehicle can make a big difference when it's time to buy a new car, reducing the outlay and allowing us to get more than we would otherwise afford.
And nowadays, the web is a great place to find out what my car is really worth, which puts me in a strong position to get the best price in a trade-in.
