Even if it is a different Chrysler dealer (or any other brand for that matter) they want to pay you low wholesale. One of the only ways to get more money for your trade-in is to pay an inflated price on the car you are trading for.

Try taking your car to a Carmax. They usually offer a fair price and will buy your car even if you don't buy one of theirs.

I did this before I got my SRT. I wound up trading in my Z4 for the SRT6 because the dealer matched the Carmax offer.
SRT- The dealer never got back to me after the last e-mail. But the trade didn't look good from the start, so I'll just keep my Coupe. It still rocks my world when I drive it.
