it has 150,000 miles, no bodily injuries how much do you think it's worth in the streets instead of a trade in?

Call the bank and ask what the blue book value is on it.

First go to http://www.kbb.com/kbb/UsedCars/default.aspx .
Make sure to include trim level (ie: XLT, Limited) since this is very important in the value.
Include any options that are NOT included in the trim packages. The site is pretty user friendly about this.
If your going to sell it yourself, invest some sweat equity or about a hundred bucks in a full detail.
You can sell it much faster and closer to the price you want if it is in immaculate condition and you will easily get your money back by doing so.
Usually ask about 250 to no more than 500 over what you expect to get.
If it is worth 8,000 ask 8,500. If you ask 10,000 and it's not worth that, some people won't even go any further.
The big debate is to post or not to post price. I say print up a computerized list of options with the price proudly posted.
Lets say someone offers you 7,500 in this scenario. First ask them if they are ready to buy today at that price.
If they say well we're gonna go home, look around, etc. just be polite but assertive and say when they are committed you both can talk price.
That way they have a reason to come back if they have your vehicle and another narrowed down.
They know that the price posted is negotiable. If they say 7500 again. Hesitate and then look them in the eye and tell them you can meet them half way.
Remember to be polite and friendly during the process. That way it will feel more like a win win situation to them and they will be more willing to buy from you.

With 150,000 miles, the trade in value will be minimal at most dealerships. If it has been well taken care of, you might consider selling it as an individual or using it yourself

Any trade in price will be MUCH less than retail. This is beacause they try to by low and sell high. Any used car you buy from a lot is one they have given someone else way too little for and are trying to get top dollar from you! Yes kellybluebook to get an idea.

Not much with over 100K miles. These cars are not known for reliability. Congradulations on getting this far. I'd be happy getting a grand for it.
