We could definitely get more selling private, but I was hoping to avoid the headache. Might have to just do it though.

We put about 25k miles on the truck. No damage. It's currently has 57k miles on the odometer (Prius has 33k). Perhaps we could get 5-7k more selling the truck privately. Not sure I want the headache of selling privately though. My research suggests that CarMax is well known for giving the best trade-in value amongst dealerships.

I used a few fuel calculators, but not that one. Thanks for the link. According to fueleconomy.gov we'd save 2.7k a year in fuel which puts me closer to pulling the trigger if that's correct.
