How to Prep Your Car to Trade it In
Trading in your vehicle, or using the equity as a down payment on your next vehicle is an easy way to get out of your old vehicle and into a new one on the very same day. Here are a few key tips to make sure that your Lincoln trade-in process is as smooth as possible:
Gather Your Belongings
From sunglasses to garage door openers, you’d be surprised at how many things can be in your car. Be sure to gather all of your personal belongings from your vehicle to make sure you don’t forget anything once you trade it in.
Ready Your Paperwork
Be sure that when you trade your vehicle in, you bring in your vehicle registration, your title (if you own your car outright), and your loan paperwork (if applicable).
Bring All Keys
Sometimes, not having all original keyfobs to your vehicle can affect its trade in value. Be sure to bring all applicable keys to your vehicle when you trade it in.
