Str8Shot Report post Posted July 12, 2016 Great Truck, but even with the maintenance to get her to the current 265,000 no way would I spend close to that much over KBB ( excellent condition) price. Good Luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Curtis Reed Report post Posted July 12, 2016 throw KBB out the door with certain diesel trucks. The 7.3 is always more sought after and more valuable than KBB shows. Same thing with the LBZ Duramax. The LBZ sells for much much more than KBB lists. KBB is for dealers and insurance compainies. Always low 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eagle#eyes Report post Posted July 12, 2016 Nice truck, do you know what he's replacing it with? Seams like that could do everything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost85 Report post Posted July 12, 2016 8k in the last year, really. not to mention the 8k tranny that got put in it right before he got it. tranny probably only has 20k on it. truck should be "bullet proof" now. like everyone said, you throw blue book out the window. this truck is VERY competitively priced. on craigslist most people are asking that or more for those that don't have any of the work done. keep talking about it, negative or positive so it stays at the top. someone will bite. truck is not on craigslist yet and price is negotiable. he didn't need the diesel anymore. bought a Tundra. if i hadn't of just bought a new cummins, i would have bought it from him 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
