It seems quite obvious that you are a young man.

We have lots of younger guys here at TBN, but they've learned the ropes here. Some of them, are very knowledgeable about tractors. Johndeere3720 comes to mind.

I'd suggest you might private message a few of them for their input, instead of asking virtually the same question over and over in new threads.

Just guessing but it seems your dad bought the 500 series and you have some kind of desire/envy of the larger 700 series? Now you want him to trade up, at a loss he isn't likely to go for, imho. I gotta a lot of doubt of this happening anytime soon.

Anytime you get what you want or more for a trade value you are paying more on the other end. I don't believe that trade value matters one bit but some guys like to see the higher value. The ultimate figure is the final bottom line, how much money do you have to throw in the pot to get the deal done. and is that figure acceptable. This is and always will be the sales "game". I have always preferred to see real figures; what will you sell me the piece no trade and what is the wholesale value for my trade then you can be better educated (i think) to wether or not you can peddle it yourself and keep that dealers margin for the used sale in your pocket.
