Could I have gotten more for it selling it outright? Maybe, but no way it would be worth my time and aggravation. I'm willing to pay for convenience, ymmv.

I will back up and say that if you bring your trade-in to the deal only after everything else is locked in, it is a neat and clean way to get rid of a car if all you want is somewhere around wholesale. They will wholesale it and come out even and you do less work.
