Can I Trade in a Vehicle for a Campervan? What You Need to Know"

Yes! DLM-Distribution considers trade-ins, including cars, trucks, vans, SUVs, RVs, boats, and other vehicles toward the purchase of a Mini-T Campervan. While we generally only accept accident-free and lien-free vehicles, we evaluate trade-ins on a case-by-case basis.

If you’re interested in trading in your vehicle, contact us with the following details:

- Year, Make, and Model

- Condition and Mileage

- Lien Status (Is there an outstanding loan, or is the vehicle paid off?)

- Accident History

Once we receive this information, we will review your trade-in and provide an estimated value that may be applied toward your Mini-T Campervan purchase.

Is Trading in My Vehicle the Best Option?

Selling your vehicle privately or through a local dealership may bring a slightly higher price, but trading it in offers significant advantages, including convenience, time savings, and potential tax benefits.

Benefits of Trading in Your Vehicle for a Mini-T Campervan

Convenience – A Quick and Easy Process

Trading in your vehicle eliminates the hassle of advertising, negotiating with buyers, scheduling test drives, and handling paperwork. Instead of managing a private sale, you can simply bring your trade-in to DLM-Distribution in Lake Crystal, MN, and drive away in your Mini-T Campervan the same day.

For out-of-state buyers, trading in also solves a transportation challenge—drive in with your trade, drive out with your Mini-T Campervan. Prefer delivery? We offer nationwide shipping to your door.

Save Time – Avoid the Long Selling Process

Private sales can take weeks or even months, requiring continuous effort to attract buyers. Trading in eliminates the waiting game, allowing you to move forward with your Mini-T Campervan purchase immediately.

Reduce the Cost of Your Mini-T Campervan

Your trade-in value is applied as an instant discount on your Mini-T Campervan, lowering the total amount you need to finance or pay upfront. This makes your campervan purchase more affordable.

Tax Savings – Pay Less in Sales Tax

In many states, sales tax is only applied to the difference between your new vehicle’s price and your trade-in value. This reduces the taxable amount and leads to significant savings.

Example:

- New Mini-T Campervan price: $65,000

- Your trade-in value: $20,000

- Taxable amount: $45,000 instead of $65,000

If your state sales tax is 7%, this means a $1,400 tax savings!

Without a trade-in, you would pay $4,550 in sales tax (7% of $65,000).
With a trade-in, you only pay $3,150 in sales tax (7% of $45,000).

That’s $1,400 in instant savings!
