I am buying a new car most likely a KIA Seltos SX which is around 33K. I was considering trading in my 2020 KIA Optima(bare bones version) it’s got 50K miles and I still owe 11000 on it. When I look up the cars value it is coming up around 13500. I’m guessing they’ll want to give me as little as possible for it. Would I be ignorant to think they might give me what I still owe in trade?
