quick check of the auto section of my local sunday paper shows an '06 Hemi, QC Thunder Road 4x4 with 38k miles for $16,995 and an '07 Hemi 4x2 with 31k miles for $15,995 at a local dealership. So I'd say your asking price is a good bit high...
My guess is $13,500 at best...

I would say that around here, with those miles and the 4.7 engine you could get between 13,000 and 15,000 depending on the condition and options.

With your mods, 12-14K, maybe 15k if you're lucky.

What do you need a bigger truck for? F-150's are no bigger, probably smaller actually i know they sit lower for sure. If its towing you want you might get a little extra out of the F-150 but if your towing that much i would suggest you get an F-250 of a Ram 2500. As for the leveling kit theres a pic of my truck with a 2.5 inch leveling kit an all you need to do is get an alignment and then your alignment problem is fixed is doesnt create to bad of angles. Tire sizes your looking at 33" tires. If you did those mods your truck would be the same size as a 2500 dodge ram or F-250 just without the higher towing numbers.

Lots of miles for an '06. That is whats gonna hurt you. I would say that the leather for the guys looking would offset the fact you only have the 4.7L. The wheels won't help the value, but make it more appealing to a potential buyer.
The other problem. it's a 2wd. That's a $2k difference from a 4wd.

I would guess in the market right now....$12k is a solid figure.
A dealer would probably put a $13,995 tag on the windshield but realy onlt get $13k. Those models are going for $8-11k at the auction with lower miles. it's just the Sad truth.

An F150 is bigger than a Ram???

I'm also surprised to see that your truck is a Laramie. In the beginning the package was available with the Hemi only.
