i would like to get at least 7-8 grand for my truck for a down payment for a 3rd gen .

whats your guys think i should do.

 

Yo we need to talk If you do sell it I would like to trade some parts for mine? IE 52mm, headlights, The cat, superchip. 1.7 But I'm not sure about them need more info.

Good luck on getting 7,000! You got raped on that truck 9,100 I paid 7,000 for mine 1yr ago. But mine is not power everything. I thought that I took a beating on my truck!

 

youve got a really sharp truck......but, that is a little high for someone just looking for a vehicle, now if theyre specifically looking for a 4wd then you might have more of a chance.....depends on how long you wanna wait

 

Now is the time to sell when everything works and it's running well. At some point in the next several years, I'm going to sell mine and trade up.

 

Everyone is leaving. Who's is going to point out my miss spelling?

 

I'm new here, but as a former motojournalist, I can help you with that.

 

Good and welcome!

 

Dont get me wrong your truck is nice now and I think it would be near impossible to get 9100. even 6-7k would be hard. I cant imagine paying 9100 for it before the mods. There on CL around here for 6-8k and thats for the quad cabs with tons of mods already.. There was even a sharp looking 02 sport quadcab lifted diesel for 8k a few weeks ago.

Either way you go, good luck.

 

Yeah man your only going to get 6-7k if your lucky. Prolly around 5-6 realisitcally. Have you checked how much youd get for a trade in for a newer ram? I konw it wouldnt be as much but maybe you could butter some ***** and get a deal? If you doo wanna sell it..hit me up

 

Ditto to what the guys said about getting around 7 for it. Probably going to have a hard time getting anything out of a standard cab unless someone is specifically looking for it.

It's ultimately your choice on what you want. If you were going to upgrade to a regular cab Hemi, I'd tell you to not bother losing that much, keep what you have. If you are going to any sort of extended cab, then it just depends on how much you want to eat on this one. If you really need an extended cab for any reason, might as well eat it now as it'll never be worth more then it is today.

If you decide to trade it in, put as much oem equipment back on it as you can before you do so, and sell that off to make up some of the difference.
