Well I hate to say this, but it is time for me to sell the D. I just can't afford the gas anymore, seeing how I can only work two days a week (due to school). I love this vehicle so much, but it has to be done. But I need some help decing how much to list it for. It is a 2000 Dodge Durango SLT. It has the 5.9 V8 with 123xxx miles. It has the third row with leather seats all around.

As far as custom items go, I have replaced the stock HU with an Alpine ida x305 ($350) that has the seamless iPod hook up. I have also replaced the stock factory speakers with some Infinities. I have also bypassed to stock amp. Also, the truck has a grill guard and a ebay CAI.

But with all that said, my main selling point would be the transmission. I had it rebuilt about 5000 miles ago, and when it was rebuilt I paid a little extra and got a lifetime warranty on the transmission.

The negatives would be a a rust spot on the upper portion of the front bumper (common among Ds). The right rear fender trim is also damaged due to some jack*** backing out of a parking spot with his door open and taking off before I could stop him. Also, the driver's sear has a spot missing on the side from entering and exiting.

KBB has a car with all of these fetures listed at $7300 in excellent condition. I would NOT say it is in excellent condition, but it does have some extras and a rebuilt tranny. So is 6000-6500 too much to ask?

THANKS FOR ALL OF YOUR HELP!!! =)

 

it's a good asking price but a better selling price is probably going to be closer to five. Kbb excellent; to meet this level the car has to look & drive just as though new.

In the selling car game stereos are like decks on houses, may interest a specific buyer but has little effect on what the home is worth. maint money is ust that & cannot expect to recover.

So list it @ 6500 & be prepared to let them talk you down as much as a grand. biggest crapper is the real value of these went down as gas prices went up. the market here is glutted with big suv's.

 

Sorry to hear.

 

Yeah that was my thinking... I think the tranny will really help though. Because the only negative (apart from the MPGs) that I heard when originally buying the truck was the tranny. It really is a great truck. I just wish I could afford the gas... I'll keep the truck if someone would be so kind as to donate to the "Andy is a broke college student and really wants to keep his truck but can't afford the gas" fund?

 

I'll give ya some poker chips but I'm broke too.
