Hi, I am almost 16 and am looking to purchase my first car. My dad gave me his 1996 Toyota 4Runner Limited. The car is in fairly good condition, only thing is there is rust on the bumper which has been fixed before and can be fixed again. It has leather seats, air conditioning, a radio, anti lock breaks, airbags, and a sunroof. It does however have 132,000 miles on it. He said I could use it until I have enough money to pay for the car I want. I would like a 2010 Jeep Patriot, customized it is about 21,000. I know Chrysler/Jeep is going through financial troubles, and my question is how low would I be able to bargain with Jeep for the Patriot (factoring in my trade in 4Runner)? Also, what are some tips to bargain with Jeep? I am not too anxious to get the car, it would be a great help for me to drive to school, marching band practice, and crew (rowing team) practice. My grandmother is having surgery soon (she lives 45 minutes away), and I would ideally like to have my Jeep in time so I could drive down in the winter/spring of next year and help her out. Sorry, this explanation is long- I digress! Thanks so much!
I know, my parents will be present for the whole process.
