What will a 2017 Ford Explorer be worth next year?
If you drive about 17,000 km, expect roughly $9,700–$11,450 in a private sale by October 2027, about $2,850 less than today. This is a projection, not an offer.
Trade-in, private sale or dealer price: what's the difference?
The trade-in value is what a dealer would likely pay you for the car today. The private-sale range is what to list it at: the low end sells in about 2 weeks, the high end in about 6. The dealer price is what dealers ask when they resell the same car, which includes their reconditioning, warranty and margin.
