Trading dollars are a form of manufacturer to dealer cash rebate.
The incentive is paid to the dealer once the vehicle is reported "sold" by the dealer.
Trading dollars should typically be applied to the before tax purchase price.
In fact all factory-to-dealer cash incentives are typically applied before tax.
Please note factory-to-consumer cash incentives should be applied after tax.
Please see our Glossary section for other incentive/rebate definitions.
