I have a 2014 Limited with 57k on it. Three weeks ago I ask what it would cost for a new 2019 and they told my $15k plus fees. They will deal more on older models that are new, everyone wants a 2020 at this point and they won't give much yet.

The wholesale on a 2014 Limited is somewhere between $10,000 and $13,000. Adding the wholesale price to their $18,000 offer doesn't sound like mad pricing. Either you sell the bike outright hoping to get $13,000 this time of year and negotiate off the floor price, or negotiate your trade-in and floor price. I think you are starting at a good price considering this time of year.

The new bikes price will stay the same or go up (typical MoCo) while yours goes down.

OP's bike is 6 model years old. Unknown mileage. New RGL is $28K and change. Add TT&L. That's a reasonable deal. Sell that bike outright on the used market and if it has average mileage, OP is lucky to get $13K. So not a bad offer at all in reality. A hard pill to swallow, sure, but not unreasonable.

This is not my dog - I am just holding the leash. Here is what I don't understand.
If I wanted to buy a Purple bike with certain things on it - and, my dealer didn't have it, I amy come on here and ask you guys if you are aware of where such a bike is located.
On the other hand, if my dealer had that bike and I wanted it - then, I doubt I would come of here and ask you if this is a good deal.
Good deals vary - what you think is a great deal might be something I would never do. If I wanted it - and had the money for it, it would be mine; regardless of the opinions here.
This is completely different from - does the Purple bikes have a good track record.
