Hi gang.
I've been a very happy owner of a 2022 OBX (non-SAS, no locker) for about a year now. I've put 6,000 miles on it, mostly on the pavement, but with a few mild off-road adventures with my kids. I am planning more serious off-road adventures with my kids later this summer.
On 3/27, I ordered a Wildtrak because (1) FOMO, (2) HOSS 3.0 (even for the comfort of daily driving), (3) the V6 (which I shied away from on my first order, when all the blown engines were happening), (4) because I'd like to own this vehicle for 10+ years ... so the more capable platform will be more conducive to adding fun things like 37's, etc, and (5) hard top (was heavily constrained last time so I was afraid to order).
My Wildtrak will come within ~2 weeks -- the whole thing moved SO MUCH FASTER than I was expecting (I thought it would be like a year from order to receipt of the vehicle). So now I'm trying to decide how to sell my OBX.
Option A: Trade-in.
Option B: Sell on private market without first paying off lien ($28k)
Option C: Sell on private market with first paying off lien ($28k) and thus sitting on it for a couple extra weeks until I get the title in hand.
Obviously, I want to get the most bang for my buck. But I also don't want to make my life unnecessarily stressful while holding two vehicles at once. So I'm interested in any advice you can offer. I've never sold a vehicle worth more than $10k before, so I'm not sure what I would be biting off that may complicate things.
As a bonus question: I've got some Vision wheels (bronze, see pic in my avatar) and tires (Recon Grapplers) that I really like on my OBX. Would I be better off selling the OBX with those wheels, or putting the WIldtrak wheels on there for the sale? Maybe that will depend on whether I go with Option A or B/C from above.
Thanks
