2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission what's it worth

[jkh]

My signature is up to date, mileage is 168,000. What could I figure on getting for it if I sell. Truck is in good to very good condition. Thinking about looking for a 05 or 06.

Not sure about in PA, but i know out here in Cali, rust free and fairly clean would put 12k in your pocket easy. You could hold out a bit for 14k. The pre-smog trucks are in high demand, something to consider possibly. What were you thinking it would bring in?

I wasn't really thinking of a price because I haven't been in the market for a while. That's why I was asking. If I could get that in Pa. I would be happy.

What i would do is check the local listing, put yours about $1500 over the highest price comparible truck and work your way down from there. It's hard to gage off of dealer pricing because they have the luxary of offering financing so they jack it up about 3-5k. If yours is priced a tad higher than the other guy, it sparks interest into what makes yours better. Rather than the guy who's is cheapest, make you wonder what's wrong with it.

Good logic JKreiss. When I am ready to move up I will definitely sell private. I don't think a dealer will give what it is really worth considering upgrades. They strictly go by the book.
