I'm still not sure when my Leaf delivery date will change from pending, but I recently paid off my 08 prius and I'm not sure what I want to do with it. Obviously, I won't need it anymore and so I thought I'd sell it. I'd probably take it back to the carmax I bought it from a year and a half ago and see what they will give me. I'm thinking around $13k since I last checked kellybluebook.com. I'm leaning towards leasing the car since I don't make enough for the full tax benefit. I've never leased a car before so I was wondering if it makes much of a difference if I trade the prius in at the dealership or if I just sell it and get a check from carmax.
My original plan was to sell the car and keep the money in my savings account and just draw from it the lease payment each month. Is there any advantage to trading the car in instead?
