Good luck. I would say your percentage of getting that is low.

I tried early summer of 07. 05 Hemi 4x4 SLT 20s, 3.92, infinity, leather, nerf bars, tonneau, bed liner, 15K miles at the time.

Best I was offered on trade was 16. Needless to say I did not do it. Although if I was trading in today 16 would be good.

I would say somewhere in the 10K range, sorry man, new vehicles drop bad, and with current gas prices and all our trucks aren't worth much.

Down here, you'd be looking at around $11,200. Sure pays to buy used.

yeah you'd be pretty hard pressed to get that...i looked up mine on KBB and it booked at 14,500 with 50K miles....last summer I got an offer for $20K, but i refused it...but hell i'd be happy as hell if i could get $15K for mine lol...you'd be better off thinkin somewhere around $12-14K

Yeah definitely not, especially the way trucks are given away today. I would guesstimate 13-14k
