Pick a price and put it on Craigslist. Dicker a bit and let it go. That
works for me both buying and selling.

No, the sale and purchase are not connected. However, I dont' want
to pay for insurance on two vehicles and I don't want a car sitting in
my drive way unused. So I'm inclined to just let it go. I have a
Carmax about 2 miles away from where I live. I'll get less for
it....and someone will get a really good car. I wish I could cut the
middle man out, though.

Ditto, Anthony!
Another critical question: Is the sale of the present vehicle 'part
of' the purchase of a
new set of wheels?
If the answer is yes; please try to drive the old some more while
saving for the new.
Next: Can the old vehicle sit in the yard (off driveway?) for some
period of time?
Times are tough and anyone looking to buy a 'deal' may be few and far
between.
(like lots of 'lookee-lu's)

You need to start here:

be realistic when selecting the actual condition of your vehicle, it's
often best to ask a friend to tell you what the exterior condition
looks
like because since they don't have an emotional attachment to the
car they
can give you a perspective on what a buyer may think of your paint job.
I will tell you that @220k miles you will not get rich off your
vehicle.

Anyone get any experience doing it yourself?
Car as ~220k, everything works, needs typical maintenance for such
a car.
Interior is in great shape (leather), moonroof, stereo.
I think if I wanted to do this work, I could get 400k from this
car. It
takes the road very well, but after 12 years I'm ready for a new
car. Oh, I
have a 80mile/day highway commute, which is why it has high miles.
Ideas? Not looking to get rich, but also don't want to get ripped
off.
