*Shes For Sale!*

well guys its been fun, im over my truck, problem after problem, terrible MPG and no power has finally gotten to me. i love my truck i get compliments on it every day..... but its time for a Super Duty.
i just want a diesel, a straight axle and less problems.

so what do you guys think my truck is worth? i have about $10-12k in after market; lift, wheels, tires, gears, sound, exhaust, tint, bla bla bla... just under 60k miles and the tuck looks perfect. autotrader.com says $22,600. how much can i add to that for my extras?

What? Edit: NVM you fixed it.



Sorry to hear that Bud. The gears didn't help you with your power? Good luck on selling.

oh they helped, and a little better mileage. but i really dont see the point in being unsatisfied with my power (still after gearing) and getting bad MPG. if i had a lot of power it would be a different story! haha

its not a matter of the power i lost, i just dont feel like i have the power to justifies the mpg. plus this is just an excuse to get a super duty!

where do you go to school? i wouldnt mid and 8" rize on 38"s on that this tho depends on how my finances look after this all goes down.

that is also one of the main reasons I got rid of my old truck also. I traded my truck into the dealer and they gave me 19,450 for it. I got a new 08 diesel crew cab lariat and I love of anpd I get about 3 mpg better than my old truck.
