$24k?

Good luck with that

[HAULN-SS]

Basically, it's my dad's truck, and he wants a 2006. Dealer trade in was higher than 24k , assuming he bought the truck from them, which he'll probably do, but I figured I'd post here in case anyone needed a good tow vehicle, etc. And it would free him up to buy the new truck anywhere he found the one he wanted

If your dealer trade in was higher than $24k, take it and run. Really, really fast.

[HAULN-SS]

like i said, probably will...but figured I'd post here too, 24k is wayyy cheap for a tow vehicle this nice, as compared with buying a new one

[.RJ]

KBB value is $19-$20k....

As mike said, its just a shell game for the dealer.

[Sijray21]

nada's usually higher than kbb from my experience, but if the dealer's willing to give you that much i would definitely take that!

[HAULN-SS]

right, and I will, but I'm just posting here for the sake of if someone wanted a nearly new pickup truck in great shape with every possible option in LTZ trim, you're getting it for 10-12grand off the sticker price of a 2006 with all the options

[.RJ]

you're getting it for 10-12grand off the sticker price of a 2006 with all the options

You lose most of that just driving it off the lot

Resale on american cars is t3h sux.

[HAULN-SS]

that's true, and that's precisely what you WONT lose if you buy this truck, that money is already gone.

edit: also, all these resale values are averages...so I'm at the higher end of the range that is being used to compute the averages..so what? Go buy a colorado, or nissan or toyota or some other value priced small pickup truck if you want a BRAND New truck for 24k or less

Well, its not a brand new truck Most people wont look at the high end of retail average on a purchase, even if it is from a dealer.

I would much rather have a tundra or titan (even used), but I cant afford it so I'm buying a used F150.

RJ, this is his For Sale Thread. Layoff. He didn't ask for your opinion, just wanted to know if anyone wanted to buy it.

titan? blech. those are piles...

[Dave]

I'd rock a titan, although I have my preferences for the Thundra and Taco (imagine that!)

[Feersty]

Any pictures of the truck?

I must agree. My uncle bought a Titan and didn't even keep it two monthes. He managed to get it stuck in our field, where his 4x4 ranger would go just fine. He traded it in on a F-150 shortly after buying it. I wasn't too impressed with it at all. Looks good, but doesn't perform like I'd expect a truck of its stature to perform.

Yeah I can get pics this weekend, when I go home
