FIND A BUYER FOR MY 2016 RAM 3500 6.4L HEMI

[SteelToeStilettos]

Suggestions where to advertise my carpenter's 2016 3500 Dually with the 6.4L HEMI? It is sparkling clean, loaded with extras. I have ads on Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, and Ebay. Only one inquiry in 3 weeks. Such a shame, as it is sparkling and has a brand new ATS Billet Trans. All suggestions appreciated. Thanks, fellas.

In a similar boat, although not on eBay and mine is a diesel. I have had it running for about 3 weeks and where I have received a few more calls, all are low ballers. I believe most were resellers. I feel the price is very fair, considering it is “sparkling and as brand new, with a Mag-Hytek transmission pan, 38 gal aux fuel tank, air bags, and leveling kit.

I feel people NEED to see and drive the truck to appreciate it, and so far no one has. Then it will sell. I am just being patient. I have one potential buyer from Phoenix, so we will see.

Good luck, If it’s as nice as you have described, the right buyer is out there.

My suggestion.......take a day off and hit as many new car / truck dealers as you can. Along my travels....most dealerships are still low on inventory. You may be well surprised with some offers you receive.

Take a drive to NW WA, you will get a good price for your truck at a dealer.

How much are you asking?

Probably the biggest things holding it up is non diesel, and single cab . But as they say it only takes one . Good luck .

Yeah, see my post about crybaby Carpenter! It's funny. Seriously, this is a beautiful truck and for someone who's green, they might prefer the honey. Beautiful engine, but not the right rig to tow a caterpillar. If you ask me

It would be awesome if Barry G would share with me how he got his build sheet from Ram as opposed to from the dealer. Do tell

 

[Cummins12V98]

Type in "window sticker by vin". Add vin number and it will show.

Type VIN in using upper case for letters.

 

[brucejohnson]

Put your VIN at the end of this link to get the Maroney (window) sticker, if it is available https://www.chrysler.com/hostd/windowsticker/getWindowStickerPdf.do?vin=

SteelToeStilettos thanks you both for the secret code for a build sheet. I will attempt to get the VIN from the dealer.

I don't even talk to people anymore who want to throw out low numbers without looking at stuff. As well, I don't make offers until I see things.. Just common courtesy IMHO, which seems to be all but gone anymore...Kinda why I don't sell things anymore; and exactly why I just traded my 04' in on the 20' when I received a decent offer on it from the selling dealer... not worth the possible extra few $$ to deal with the scum on craigslist or worse... create a facebook acct..

 

[SteelToeStilettos]

a note to Cummins12V98...my reference to getting the VIN from the dealer relates to the truck I have recently ordered. I know it is surprising, but I actually did know where to find the VIN on a vehicle in my possession. Sheesh!

 

[SteelToeStilettos]

As for selling vehicles, or anything else, I don't give up so easily. It is all about activity...having my line in the right ponds, more than one pond, will inevitably bring forward the right buyer. So, I will stay after it! Good night!

Hope you can understand my FATAL error as your post was all one paragraph so I ASSUMED same topic.

We know each other better now.

Hey... I just got an idea! We are bored down here, first husband, my Carpenter and me. Why not organize a TDR Roundup?
