air force vm Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 So you are tell me that the value of our trucks has dropped that much. Its hard to believe. You know the sad truth is that the dealer will turn around and sell it for like $20,000 or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yttaf Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 wow that's lowballing there! I thought the dealership who only offered me $10k was bad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSplaytoy Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 Trade in value is usually around 15k at a dealer, or at least it should be according to KBB and depending on the condition of the truck. If you want a new vehicle, best bet is try to get it sold to a private party and then take the cash and put it towards a down payment on a new car/truck. A dealer only offering 5k is full of I would have laughed in the guys face and told him his wife pays me more for my "services" and to go f himself. It is stuff like that that really ticks me off. In this sh!tty Obamaconomy, people are doing pretty bad and others are taking advantage of that. Example, the dumbass at the dealer you went to.

detjoe Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 dont use KBB values...they use black book prices and they will either make you mad or LOL I would rather sell it here than give it to a dealer to make up. My wife has a great story about trying to trade in my Audi allroad...lets just say I was mad and told them its bs to not use the same book for values (KBB vs Black book) espically when customers dont come in thinking black book prices they think hey KBB is my range....wrong! Last guy here said the dealer was asking 19K and would not budge...off of their 14K profit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

essess Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 That is one of the many reasons GM and other mfgs. have been hitting rock bottom ---- the insulting ways of treating customers. And just think, the tax payers (customers) bailed them out so they could continue with that same old mindset. It's disgusting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
