09' sxt, 27,995?

http://www.seekins.com/inventoryDisp...rent=1&size=10

Was looking at this truck in person yesterday, and man I feel in love.. not sure about the price though. I will say its priced a hell of a lot more realistically than the other used trucks on the lot, with a barely any miles on it too. The others were more, and had 40-60k on them. This one may as well be new. Bed-liner, running boards, ect..... Of course i'd have to talk them down, 25,500 maybe.. ?

What do you guys think?

I have the same truck in blue and i love it. I paid $25,000.00 for mine new last fall but if you like it and they will take $25,000.00 its probably not a bad deal.

I also have the same truck, but in black. I paid just under $25,000 new last August. Sticker was $33,300.

New, I'd pay no more than $25k. 10k miles used, no more than $22k.

Like others have said, you need to get them down to at least 24k I'd say, other wise buy new

With 25,500 I'm taking into account the fact that dealers here demand a slightly higher price premium since they've got to pay for stuff to be shipped up here, its not cheap. Our used car market will always be higher than down in the states

I would go for 24-25k. That is if you would be happy with the 2 valve and the 4 speed. You could probably get a 3v and a 6sp for not much more if any.

Oh, I did not even notice the drivetrain. The 3V + 6-spd combo gets you much better acceleration and better fuel economy too. High value to me.

How big of a difference do you guys notice with your 6-speeds? I'd imagine acceleration is smoother, not much faster, unless your assuming with a 4 speed that its hesitating between shift (more than likely)....

Gotta be 2 seconds quicker 0-60 and quarter mile. You get more peak torque over a wider engine speed range with the 3V and two more gears. First gear is almost half of the 4-spd, which means wheel torque is almost double. Top gear is almost the same. There is one more gear spaced evenly between 2 and 4th of the 4-spd.

4-speed ratios:
2.84 1.55 1.00 0.70

6-speed ratios:
4.17 2.34 1.52 1.14 0.87 0.69

Besides 0-xx target speed acceleration, smaller gear spacing means when the engine upshifts, torque won't drop off as much.
