Worth Trading In 2023 EX-L?

Local Honda been trying to get me to trade in as dealers typically do, but i’m kind of considering it. I have the 2023 EX-L non-hybrid, 83k miles since May 2023 due to the nature of my long commute. Thinking about moving closer to the job around 2027 but main reason im considering trading in is for a hybrid model potentially. Would certainly help going to the pump twice a week currently, i get emails from carfax that cars worth about $16-$17k. Anyone been in a similar boat or with advice?

Edit: it’s 2023 EX, considering the EX-L, hybrid

So I did two things. First updated to the latest preview build: KB5083631 (Build 26200.8328/26100.8328) for Windows 11. Did a Steel Nomad benchmark test right after and got my expected results of around 7500 score (RTX 5070Ti).

This morning I decide to update my GPU drivers to the latest to be able to play Pragmata- ended up with a black screen, but restarted the PC and it loaded up fine anyway. I decide to run the benchmark and I notice a drop in scores to around 6900-7100. Small reduction, but still a reduction nonetheless. This is with my OC/UV profile as well- can verify that is "working" as my "stock" settings give a score around 6500- which is also weird since my stock score is usually around 6900.

So assuming it is the driver I do a clean wipe using DDU and reinstalled to my old driver- problem persists. I uninstall/roll back Windows update- problem persists.

Any other ideas to why I have had this drop in performance?
