Default Need some advice with what I should do!!!

Alright you guys I have a 2002 dodge ram QC with a 4.7 195k miles and it still runs amazing no issues except coils etc. I just bought a 5.7 Hemi with 25k miles. Now I was planning on doing the swap but changed my mind cause its gonna take me awhile to do the build. Do you guys think I should sell my truck here on the forums or on craigslist for like $9500? Or would that be asking to much? I do have alot of after market stuff such as a DJM lowering kit, rear flip kit with load helper bags. 20in Forged Evo rims w/new spare tires, HIDs w/fogs 6k, Jason hard tonneau cover, Factory rims, 2way viper alarm with smart start, after market pioneer radio with bluetooth and upgrade interior speakers. I'm not attempting to sell it in this thread but just simply get some advice about what you guys think I should do. If I should sell it for more etc, I'm planning on buying a newer ram with a hemi already in it or a 6.1 lol anyways let me know thanks guys. Here's a picture so you guys can see what it looks like.

P.S- The Hemi comes with the Trans, full wire harness, and PCM or ECM whatever ...

Well the only thing I encountered was one of the rocker arms popped which kinda pissed me off other then that everything is good cause I already fixed it... After reading some threads about it I guess its only going to get worse or so that's what a few people have said.

For the most part ,these trucks are real good , we are only getting the problems that arise with all vehicles at this forum, this forum isn't big enough if all the owners chimed in good or bad. so you really are judging a book by it's cover so to speak.And 9500 ia an awesome price/that'll get you in to a newer truck easily.

I wasn't bad mouthing my Ram hell I love this thing! I haven't really encountered anything big with my ram besides the basics that's it. The rocker issue well that was no big deal. That's why If I sell this I'm going to get another. Preferably one with Leather heated seats, Hemi and a 4x4. I live in Michigan so the winter months the 4x4 would come in handy lol! I created this thread just to get an idea of what you guys thought about my plans to sell my truck with a hemi motor, and what extra ideas you guys could give me in regards to it.
