Thinking about selling the Taco...need some help.

-Bilstein 5100's all around. Fronts are set to .85 with eibach coils. Rears are the extended ones as it is also had a Toytec 1.5"
-AFE Air filter
-Betterbuilt toolbox
-weathertechs
-tinted windows
-16x8 Ivan Stewart Rims/ 265-75-16 Cooper ATP
-Grillcraft
-factory fogs
-aftermarket "smoked" headlights
-stainless steel 3" nerf bars(not in picture)

I'm just sure what to ask for it. When its all said and done I'd like to get between $17k-$17,500 for it.

Do you think I could get it sold for that price?

These are the only pics I have right now.

 

Pics look extremely clean, however I would part it out and return it to stock. Unless you find a buyer on here you won't get your money out of the aftermarket parts. Is it 4wd?

 

Yes, it is 4WD, probably should have included that.

 

None of that stuff you added will bring you any more money over the stock truck. All though it's not modded heavily, it's modded to your taste. Clean truck though. GLWS

 

I don't think that number is unreasonable. Looks like a nice clean truck, and people may be looking more into 4cyls since gas prices are so high now.

 

Thanks guys, I do have a stock white grille that I could throw on and sale the grillcraft, but it'd be hard to take completely to stock b/c I have sold alot of the stock componets recently.

I'm hoping the 4 cylinder will help it out, especially with gas prices right now. It consistently gets 20-22 mpg even with 265/75/16's

 

I looked up KBB private party value and its at $17,651.

So, I'm thinking price it at $17,500 and leave some room to negotiate?

 

Good idea. The wiggle room is key in making the buyer believe they have gotten the best deal they can.

 

What are you getting after the Taco?

 

I'm mot quite sure yet. Still pondering on that. All I know now is it will be a full size truck. I've looked at the 09+ F-150's but havent got to drive one yet.

 

Well heres a few more pics of the truck. I'm going to give it a good cleaning and probably list it for sale over the weekend.

The last picture of the passanger side foglight is the only place it has any damage whatsoever.

I think I've decided if it sells I am going to look into a used Silverado or Sierra 1500 4x4.

 

No receiver hitch?

80K miles and a 4 banger?... You might be asking a little much for the truck IMHO.

KBB estimates are considered for immaculate, un-modded vehicles.

Good luck Jake

 

Thanks I appreciate it. I've got some room for negotiations but I just want to get the most I can out of it because I'll have to put a little more with whatever it sells for to pay it off. Dang negative equity!

 

you are 23 years old and have negative equity on a modded Tacoma.

you need to visit Dave Ramsey before you visit a Chevy or GMC 1500 4x4.

just a little advice from an old guy.

 

Haha sounds like my dad. But I've actually been studying some stuff from Dave Ramsey, dude's a financial genius and I've started using some of his saving strategies.

As far as the negative equity goes, between the ages of 18-20 I made some dumb boneheaded decisions trading a truck for a car for gas mileage purposes, hating the car within 3 months, trading for a different car just to end hating it more than the first then traded that for the Tacoma.

So all that trading caught up with me. And the bad thing is with cars, where I live a 4wd is a necessity if I'm getting home in the winter time, so I don't know what're heck was going on in my 19 year old mind at the time. You live and you learn I guess.

 

well, it does not sound like you are stupid or have your head up yer ass. (I also did some boneheaded stuff in my life...so don't sweat it)

maybe you could keep the Tacoma...work your way out of that neg equity position. even if it means foregoing some of the mods?
