Default GXP was traded in....here is the replacement
I traded in the GXP last Friday with 111k miles on the clock.....snagged a virgin '06 AWD TBSS with 59k on her as the replacement.

Only a couple basic pics for right now.

I had 111k on the odometer and I got $8900. Most trade in offers I received were around $7500-8000 mainly because of the mileage and a lot of the dealers wouldn't sell cars with that high mileage on their main lots.....all in all I don't think I did too horrible seeing that I only paid $9300 for the car last February, but I did just sink $2600 into rebuilding the trans.....I paid just over $17k for the TBSS.

Not bad for that many miles,you kept the rims on the car when traded in?Thats what i did with my 04 Imp and left the 20's on and they gave me an extra $1000 on top of what they offered me,only 1k upside down not bad at all

Just drove a fully loaded 07 tbss at my friends ford dealer, fully fully loaded with 71k on it. Nice torque down low, truck felt good with that many miles on it but the mpg kills me since I won't need the back seat in it since I'm single so who would enjoy the rear dvd player. haha
