Nice matching vehicles!
Dont sweat the trade in too much. I've chased maximizing the dollar out of things a lot and it can be stressful and time consuming. A new bumper, tires and wheel bearings at a shop would probably set you back $2500 plus weeks of your time, plus the hassle of dealing with selling privately. Its a shame that trade in value isnt taken off the bottom line for the sales tax though.
