Navigating a Counteroffer Dilemma After Accepting a Remote Job

I recently accepted a fully remote role with a salary of $65k and submitted my resignation at my current job, where I'm making $55k plus incentives. However, during a meeting, my current employer countered the offer, expressing a desire to match it and asking what it would take for me to stay. They even agreed to let me work fully remote, which was one of my main reasons for considering leaving. Now, I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I had already planned my exit, including arrangements for my car, which my dad is taking this weekend. I'm feeling confused about whether to ask for the same $65k or push for $70k, considering I was ready to leave for a reason. The role still has some of the same issues that prompted my job search, but with this new money on the table, I'm questioning everything. I'm seeking advice on what number to throw out there and how to navigate this counteroffer situation.
