You'll get a credit for however much they give you on trade in for the L

For instance

L trade in = 23k
Cobra Price = 30k

You only pay tax on 7k, which means you would have to sell your car for about 1600 more to make the difference in the tax you would save...make sense?

kinda cuz i thought that you had to start all over as far as a trade like, i trade in the L for 23K then the cobra is 30K well i thought they would retax me for the 30 and not the 7K differnece, if you could privately email more infor on this that would be appreicated
