Right on! Or get a loan pre-approval thru your credit union. Tell the salesman it's a cash deal, no trade (even if you do plan on trading) And get the best cash out the door price you can. Pull out your trade then, and know what it's wholesale value is, because that's most likely all you're going to get for it. If he tries to renegotiate your cash deal, walk out the door. Personally, I never do trades with a dealer, because NONE of them will sell you their car low, and buy your car high.
