J L Rishel Company

The Van Bortel group of dealerships including Subaru, Ford and Chevrolet are one price dealers where the dealer discount on new and used vehicles is given up front without any need to negotiate.The Van Bortel pricing structure does affect the trade in "allowance" which includes dealer discount
There is no artificial mark up on the Van Bortel price to give the dealer room to "allow" more for the trade "allowance" Our dealerships provide an Actual Cash Value or ACV for trades In order to compare quotes for trade in, the Van Bortel trade in ACV needs to be added to the Van Bortel dealer discount to compare to NADA, Kelly Blue Book or Black Book values The Van Bortel discounted price of the vehicle remains the same, no matter if there is a trade in or not So, when you look at trade in "allowances" on Black Book, Kelly Blue Book or NADA those figures include any dealer discount Please keep in mind that Black Book, Kelly Blue Book and NADA are only guides and the Used Car Manager is the actual appraiser.We would welcome another opportunity for our Sales Manager to discuss this further with Mr***
