fair price?

I agree with rex they want way way to much for that truck. the plow maybe adds like 1000 to the price of the truck other than that the rest really doesn't have any weight on the price. Again its 9 years old. 6000 -6500 would be the most. about the warrenty don't even bother. 30.000 miles isn't a whole lot. heck I put on almost 20,000 in a year. and thats traveling a half hour away for work. dealers are looking to rip people off this time of the year with stuff like this. They look at it like its winter people want bigger vehicles and the second is gas is down under 2 bucks (shockingly) and has stayed there for a while now. Just do your research man. Check out other trucks like that else where. see what they are going for then go from there.

A car dealer's purpose in life is to move vehicles. It costs him a lot of money to keep a truck around for long periods. Sometimes these guys will take a low price just to get it off the lot so they don't have to look at it anymore. They know they'll make up the diff on some other chicken who comes in there to get "plucked." I have had dealers yell at me. So what? It's a cuthroat business. But, guess what? If that truck is still sitting there 3 weeks later, you have a bargaining chip. You think these people aren't going to play harball with you? Guess again!
Everything considered, I wouldn't pay more than 6k for a 9 yo rusty truck with a snow plow (in Houston). I guess they're worth more in Ohio.

Basically what I was trying to tell him was that $10,000 or whatever initial estimate was way to high and that I'd pay a maximum of that $7800.
But it obviously has problems, so I'm glad he didn't go for it.
