Florida B.S. Thread

haha I guess not lol, keep searching for stuff like that, i may just end up finding something to trade. Its just i dont know how much id get for my baby right now and if id even get enough to pay her off. and plus, I dont want to get rid of the current mods I have done to the truck so far (mostly just the wheels/tires and CB, Id keep all that stuff

im too attached to my girl lol, I cant just get rid of my first vehicle like that

 

im wondering if I could get 13k for my truck

 

private selling your '08 that has less miles than mine AND in better condtion...id say maybe around 14-15K or even more. I see so many okay '06-'08 Tacos going for 16-18K. KBB estimated MY truck at like 13.3K for private sell, but I dont know...I really do want the 4x4 and the diff lock...just I love my Taco at the moment

 

damn, i need to get on the ball then. that would be sweet if I could get 15k

 

check out Kelly Blue Book, they can give you a rough estimate of what your truck is worth, like with mine, last I checked it was surprisingly worth 13.3K for private seller in good condition

 

i'm assuming 2wd right? and miles?
i would think you would be able to cause yours is an 08,
i think trade in prices for my 06 with at the time 110kish miles was about 11K

i hear ya, but all the little stuff doesn't add up to much, with the way you like to wheel, in the long run you're better off puttin in a few more g's to get a 4x4 than spending that money on lifts and suspension. don't take this the wrong way, i don't care what you do, but i just put those out there cause it's not AS bad a deal as others i've seen, as chris said, i'm appalled at the price of these used trucks, even the first gens

 

You'll get rid of it when you find something you like more trust me it gets easy this is my sixth truck in six years and I'm already looking at trading it in on a 4x4 double cab

 

private, i've def seen more expensive trucks than yours, but one thing we never really know, is how much they actually go for vs asking price, i'm sure others have way more experience, but in my opinion it really just depends on the buyer, u could list ur truck for 18K and have some random guy pick it up the next day, or you could list it at 15K and have it sit and sit, just depends on who is looking

 

haha, nice! i've thought about getting rid of mine twice for a white double cab 4x4, i figured if i could sell mine, put in like 2K and get a 4x4 with lower mileage, i would, but with one of them, there was no contact info on CL for me to even go see the truck, it looked legit, but he was missing a digit on his phone number

and no email option

 

the one I want is sitting at the dealership right now.

 

this is 1 of 2 that I woulda gotten rid of mine of mine for

keep in mind this was in 2011

 

so I was thinking if I could get 15K for my truck as is, I would profit about 2200 (from how much I owe), which thats enough to rebuy everything back and even get a little bit of a bigger tire, same rims, muffler, grille, stickers, CB and even get another Rough Country 3" suspension lift for the time being until I would get the 2700 together for the suspension setup...damnit nam

 

damn!

 

Not to discourage you but getting another rough country 3" until you can get the cash for a suspension isn't gonna benefit you much. Save your money man you'll be glad you did

 

A 4x4 will do you 100x more good than any of those mods, just something to consider.

 

I might just throw it up on craigslist, and see if I get any bites

 

yaaa, but the RC 3" only costed me $250, which is the main reason I bought it in the first place, and with how much I make, it would take about 5 or 6 months to get the money I needed without screwing myself over with my budget. I dunno though....im still very confused on what I want to do
