You&#8217;ll need to bring it with you when you visit any dealership, including ours. If there is a secured party listed on the model, you&#8217;ll need to bring in a payoff letter or a 10-day payoff amount from the lender in question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/115\/2023\/11\/30083740\/Business-Financing-Accounting-B_b.jpg\" alt=\"Vehicle Financing Accounting\" class=\"wp-image-2842\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/115\/2023\/11\/30083740\/Business-Financing-Accounting-B_b.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/115\/2023\/11\/30083740\/Business-Financing-Accounting-B_b-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/115\/2020\/10\/19070557\/2021-Ram-1500__b2_o.jpg\" alt=\"2021 RAM 1500 truck bed view\" class=\"wp-image-3059\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/115\/2020\/10\/19070557\/2021-Ram-1500__b2_o.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/115\/2020\/10\/19070557\/2021-Ram-1500__b2_o-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3>Vehicle Registration<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In many states you&#8217;ll need to bring your vehicle&#8217;s most current registration to the dealership if you want to transfer the license plate of your current model. A copy of the most current registration will work, but you must make sure that it is the most-up-to-date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Service Records<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is an optional document, but one that we do recommend you take into account when you&#8217;re trading in your model. If it has been well-kept, maintained, and has had no issues, you can likely skip over this one, but if not you should make sure you bring these documents. They can increase the value of your trade-in!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-align-center\">Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.auctiondirectusa.com\/sell-trade\">Trade in your vehicle<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, these are only three of several great documents that you can bring with you!
