Traded in against WHAT. If the NEW auto had the price jacked up, sure they give you a lot for your trade, but did you get the BOTTOM LINE on your new whatever???

A $40k '06 H3 is worth about $26k now. Trade allowance will depend upon wholesale to wholesale or retail to retail, or some mix thereof.

H2's in my opinion aren't any bigger inside for usable space.

30,500 was the true trade in for my situation yellow ducky. Worked the deals separate on new buy and trade. Bought new Dodge Ram Hemi. Wasn't going to buy cash; worked the deal on the new truck then decided to trade the H3. I believe they gave me the above number due to alot of the extras I put on it. Magnaflow exhaust, upgraded 33 tires, small chrome extras.

Dirtdog74H1 - Including sales tax and license, how many thousands of dollars were lost in the trade? Looks like about $7K.

Decent trade-in price but who knows how much the rapidly depreciating Dodge Ram cost...

ummmm? no. The H2 is way bigger inside. Fold the seats down in both trucks....way more room. put five adults in both trucks, more room in the H2 again.

My observations: two front seats - even score, rear seat - H2 a little wider, cargo area- H2 usually has huge spare tire taking up 1/2 of cargo space. I would agree without the spare tire inside the H2 has more space, but most don't come that way from the factory.

or you can spend $1500 to move the H-2 tire outside...

I wondered about the spare tire on the earlier models after i posted. GOOD POINT! The spare tire is standard being mounted outside since late 04 I believe. So the rear cargo area is more useable in the H2 without in there. With it mounted in there, that thing is a monster. I don't think you have anywhere near as much room as an H3 in the back with it mounted. The center council has more room in the H3 also as long as you don't have the DVD player mounted in there. The glove box in the H2 is larger inside though.

I guess there can be different deffs. of what useable space can say about a truck. We have an H2 and an H3. Love both trucks, but anytime we go off to Home Depot or the lumber yard we take the H2. The design of the H3rear seats not folding flat hinders stackable space in the H3 where the H2 has way more room when it comes to that. now on the flip side, the H3 seat backs stay upright and you can move the seat bottoms forward. This helps us on quite a few occasions also.

I'm wondering what the actual claimed carrying capapcity in sq ft is on both trucks. ???

Lost little over 7K Steve San Jose. I was very pleased with the transaction. If I sold the H3 privately, I'd probably get the same amount.
