Kelly Blue Book trade-in value on the 'Sploder is $1605.00. Private party sale value is around $2k.
Considering that it's got a complete new gasket set, new alternator, and new tires, that seems low.
Then again, if I get the Hybrid, I'm not keeping the 'Sploder.
Should I try and get a trade-in on it? Should I try and sell it outright? Should I do the donation thing?
Tell me O brave LJ land, whatchu thinkin?

The "private sale" price on all vehicles in every available source is low because those numbers include sales to relatives. Unless the buyer is your mom, that price is too low.
The "dealer retail" price at edmunds.com is pretty close to what private sellers typically ask for.
Look at similar models on carsoup. Sell it outright.
ha.
Besides, I still need something that I can haul building materials and filmmaking equipment in, and can yank around a trailer.
Donation...if it makes a real difference on your taxes, or if you know someone who could use it. Otherwise, I wouldn't.
