I had mine appraised at several dealers recently (long story), but 33-36K was the norm for an '04 with 8500 miles. This is in NC, as your prices will vary widely by market.

ML 500 Sport
thanks...

Not sure I am reading you results right but....

As you can see mine is 2002 Ml500 sport package all options
only 11,600 miles not perfect but very close
I am being offered $26,500 trade towards my Dodge Magnum.
does this make sense or am i getting screwed?

Dealer says they only go by Galvins which i had never heard of and can't find any info

by the way if you haven't driven a Magnum...give it a shot..tons of power and 80-90% MB parts
