How much is my truck worth?

FS:  2006 Nissan Titan.   Low Miles!  One Owner!  Body Beat to Shit!


So over the years my Titan has collected its share of dings and dents.
I was in midst of buying parts to make it more presentable when it got backed into by a high schooler while parked,  which pushed it over my personal "beat to shit" threshold limit. Im moving out of the area in 3 weeks and dont have time to get it fixed,  so Im thinking of selling it as-is.   Which sucks because I love having a beater truck.

Since I know some of you keep an eye on the truck market (though probably not the beat-ass truck market),  Im looking for opinions on what it may bring on the market.

2006 Nissan Titan SE  (mid model) 2wd
Tow Package,  bed rails and spray in bed liner (that has a few bubbles)
Miles 44,000.  Engine and trans are very strong.  Trans flush a few thousand miles ago.
Plenty of tread on tires,   plenty of meat on the brakes, and a fresh alignment this week.
Mechanically in good shape except for a bad brake fluid sensor that happens on all these trucks but I didnt fix because I have eyes.  $170 part if you cant handle the light in the dash
The batteries in the tire pressure sensors ran out so that light is on.   I didnt fix because I can read a tire pressure gauge.

Well low trade in is 6500. You could probably unload it pretty quick for 6k?

Closest comp I can find nationwide is 8g, also with RWD, but that does not have the body damage. I would think that somewhere between 5 and 6 will sell quickly depending on the condition of the interior.

Thanks for the input, I'd be pretty happy getting 5-6 for this.

where you moving that you don't need a truck?

My Dad has a truck for when I need one,  this has become too much of an eyesore  and it would be a pain to transport the truck to where I am moving.   

I plan on buying the next gen Ranger (or Cybertruck????) as my DD in a couple years anyway.

I listed for $6900,  had a ton of interest,  lots of lowball offers for 5,  and 2 guys that allllllmost paid close to asking price before waffling away.  (One of which took over an hour of my time and a 30 min test drive..... this aint carmax bud)
Ended up getting $5500 to a very appreciative young hispanic guy who needed it for work.  So thats kind of a nice feeling to help someone out.
If I had more time,  I have no doubt I could have gotten ~$6500

Add on the $3300 insurance payout that I pocketed,  and Im pretty darn happy with $8800

Can we just pretend that there is $5500 worth of bills that spell out "RJ eats man ass"?   because I really dont have the time to do it for real.

I think it's the thought that counts.
