    well,, I almost went for trading in the 12 taco for something else..the chevy1500 extra cab. I just want to see how the market go. the dealer wanted 21000 grand for the taco while the truck they offer for me was 1500 extra cab with ltz z71 package with all the bell and wistle. for 39280 bucks before trade and rebates. I test drove the chevy... nice roomy,, power( 5.3).
    My mom, brother, dad and a coworker told me that I am nuts. So I think hard and looked at the taco offered me.
    I AM STICKING TO THE TACO. so don't get start bashing on me.

    I was stuck with a rental Silverado 1500 crew cab 5.3L for half of this week. The gas gauge on that thing went down faster than I wanted it to.

    funny you say that.. the dealer told me in my face that they use Kelly book.. I hated Kelly books due to one thing.. they priced wayyy low compared to NADA or edmound. I am sure they did look in the NADA book on behind my back.

    most banks go by NADA, some dealers will use both and give you something in the middle but your first pencil will always be usually low trade in value you have to work for what your truck is worth when you trade it in, you cant settle on the first set of numbers they give, i know alot of tricks from being in the buisness for a few years, you have to remember they have to make money to so they are going to shoot as low as possible to make as much as possible.

    ah I didn't know the banks use the nada valves.. I agreed that the frist penned numbers is not workable. true the dealers have to make money in two ways.. the % from the new truck cost and the % the cost of turning the traded truck to sell back... I might have to pm you down the line. for tips. when I going to trade my taco for another taco down the line
