I should have sold it when fuel hit 3 bucks a gallon a year and half ago... . now I am all but in the poor house... .

Man, that stinks. Good luck, but I know what you are talking about with high fuel prices. If i didnt have my truck paid for and need a full size rig to pull my toy hauler I would get rid of mine also. Scotty

Sounds like a great truck for the $$$. Someone will snap it right up.

 

[JCasper]

Sorry to hear you have to sell, but I do understand.



$225 yesterday for 49 gallons of fuel and I wasn't even empty. It's been an expensive summer.



Good luck with the sell.

Man, even with the price of diesel were it is, I would kill to get out of my truck and into one with a 6 speed transmission!

 

[BHolm]

The price of fuel has fallen here by 20 cents a gallon in less than two weeks, almost as fast as it was going up



Good luck with the sale, big diesel trucks are hard to sell right now, you might have to take less than $19. 5k

That is a pretty good price for a loaded truck with 86K miles. I can't see having to give it away for any less than that. It is a great truck with alot of life left in it. Scotty

okay I will let the cat out of bag... I have O. B. O listed in the ad... . I need 18K firm... would like to get 19K considering the options and the condition she is in

I don't want to be a bummer, but you're going to have to come down more if you need a quick sale

Unfortunately, I agree with Forrest. The market on trucks and SUVs has collapsed. Some dealers won't even take them on trade anymore.

I understand your guys points, and I have watched many people come and go here for the last four and a half years.

Kelly Blue Book says whole sale value is 16,000K, while private party value is 20K. Just trying to break even on my loan at 18K so as not to come up upside down.



I realize the market is not there; however, I also realize that there are guys on here that are just itching to get their hands on an H. O. 305 motor with an NV5600 that need and or want a truck like mine to pull hot shot or whatever the case may be. I figure I just got my truck barely broke in the for the next guy.

Wife wants a 2500 2wd auto 3. 73 geared low mileage.

 

[APersondek]

UPDATE: I lowered the price, and listed a couple of accessories that I forgot about - like spray in bedliner that has been there since day one!

Also, one more bump to the top
