Dodge dealers are cutting off my nutts, I'm really considering getting a quad cab 2500 long box with the 6.7.. How ever, I'm anoyed with the dealers cutting down my truck because of the hemi, reg cab and the manual transmisson.

I do understand quad cabs and autominics are more wanted on trades, but 12,500 on trade is nuts..

 

private party you should be able to get $16k for it. I'd list it at $17k and come down some.

 

The economy is in the toilet. You won't get much for a used truck right now!!

 

which is why i said $16. Normally, I'd think you could get 20 easy for it

 

On a 60,000 $ cnd sticker price , ( 2500 SLT quad cab long box 6.7 auto ) with out neg down, I said, I wanted 25 grand for my truck, Find one with a 6sp 6.7 quad cab with a long box, or factery order me one, I would put five grand down as well, dealer said no, your truck is only worth 12500.00, with the 2,000 topper .. I owe five grand on my truck now...

I Know the dealer stickers are inflated, to keep it simple, I inflated my price, I doubt I;m going look any more, its a spring thing...

 

you do a kbb on it? The only error on that may be that it doesn't calculate the terrible economy into the price?

 

http://nada.com/ A lot of dealers use nada over kbb

 

NADA i think is what most of the car collectors use, and it tends to be more accurate.
Personally I use NADA and KBB.

 

I don't know what cnd dealers use, Kelly blue book or if they make it up as they go...

 

If you told them you only owed $5k before you worked the deal, that was your first mistake. It's easier for people to "lose" money that's already been paid compared to one's that must roll thousands into the next loan. The dealer looks at it like a freebee money maker for them.
