    That truck hasn’t sold yet.
    Asking and selling price are 2 different things.

    I hope the guy sells the truck, but I’d be skeptical.
    I’d being inspecting that frame really good. From what I see, I think he values it high.

    Not throwing down on anyone here.
    I’ve dealt with insurance. You will get no where with them unless you have “proof”.
    Proof is based on selling price, not asking price.

    Short story made long sorry!
    My 08 base 200k on it with new frame suspension rack body mounts etc,

    was totaled late 2020.

    My insurance paid me 16k I paid under 20k for it in 2011 with 30k My ins handled it didn’t want me to even talk with driver at fault ins.
    I bought this 2012 TX with 130k for 18k out the door not sure actual price paid cash just wanted the total.

    I kept my mud tires and added a 3rd gen suspension and 1” rear block with added HD springs. Frame rust is a big deal here in VT and the TX hadn’t been well taken care of before I got it.
    I’m getting older and really didn’t want to spend my summer under it trying to save it. It wasn’t gonna fail in time so I’d been looking. I knew it was only something to fill the gap. I recently traded the TX for this.

    I got 16k$ for it with 160k on it, and the 2018 OR below trade in value. I paid for it no loan not sure if it really helped much?
    The total amount was huge because the wife was pissed when she came home to find it in the garage.
    Hate to say it but having your rig totaled by someone is the best money, I was offered 4K for my 08 as trade just before totaled.
    Told them I was just paying cash and no trade so I told them I’m just going somewhere else have a good day!
