Another topic that is BS is that you can't trade in in the US. I was talking to a Subaru dealer that said that they do except trade in from Canadians.
Why I would want to is another story.
Besides the trade in is just another cash grab for the dealer, 9 times out of 10 you will make more money selling your car privately. They will offer you only 50-70% of what they will sell the car for in the end and that doesn't justify the tax savings off the price of the car.

What kind of financial genius would want to trade their car in the US where prices are low rather than selling it in Canada where prices are high?

and with no tax break on top of that...
