Who traded in the '99/'00 L's? What did you trade for and why?
Just curious, wondering what to do with my '00L.

 

I have a trade in price for my 99 on a 01. If I can sell before I trade it in I'll do it. I always wanted silver and now since the 01's have some improved parts I'm going for it..

Traded. One phucked up ride. Giving Ford a second chance at my expense. So far so good.

Let's say it cost around $2000.00

I would imagine that this will be a difficult poll to accurately conduct, in that many who trade for something else will not check into this forum. I traded my 99 for an Audi TT Quattro Roadster. I got tired of worrying about the intercooler.

Less than 24 hours ago I did the best mod ever to the Lightning-traded it in on a 01 Mustang GT. No regrets and don't expect to have any. I plan on keeping the Stang about a year to see if Chevy is gonna make the SS or not and if not I will buy a new Chevy truck and build my own L eater.

Best 1/8th mi stock:9.13
Best with R9 and new motor: 8.50 at 82.5
1995 Stang : (wifes'car) 12.30 1/4 mi
1972 Skylark: 7.16 1/8, 6.70 on the bottle

 

I traded my 99 in for a 01, for the reasons stated above and a few others. So when the cheby boys built their "L eater" they just might run into a "SS eater". BTW if chebys new SS is no more than the mighty SS454, they might just as well build chevettes!

Traded a 99 with 38,000 km in on a 2001. Can$8000 was the difference, including tax.

 

Tradded '99 on a '01. I wanted the lights, interior upgrades, and yes the new wheels. I did have 36k on the '99 and got 25g trade.

I'm trading in my 00 for an 01. My guess is that you can make at least 3 perfectly good chevettes out of one 454SS. Make good economic sense.

Why are you trading in your '00? Are they giving you a good deal?
AND there is nothing wrong with a chevette................that a lb. of c-4 couldn't fix.

 

The wheels? Boo! Not a fan. And what interior upgrades are there from the 2000? I didn't notice any when I peeped in one.

The wheels do grow on you as I didn't like them when first laid eyes on them. As far as interior upgrades, the onlt thing that I noticed was the "new car smell".

I traded my '99 for an '01 Harley Screw. The main reason was for seating. Having 2 two seaters wasn't cutting it. Miss the power but much happier with the interior and extras that come with the Harley.
