    Good used truck deals are out there, be patient

    You just have to be patient but not everyone that is selling a used truck is asking new truck prices.
    Been looking for a used truck for my 18 year old son, and found a good one

    In Montgomery, Texas

    2008 Chevy 2500HD 4x4 Duramax LLM, with mini max tuner and cold air intake, new Michelin tires. New transfer case and Allison tranny ( under warranty) for 2 years or 24K miles. Ranch hand front bumper, camouflage Neoprene seat covers front and back over black leather interior ( not torn up)
    5th wheel hook up, and a nice lear camper shell ( that he immediately took off)
    Weather tech floor liners
    New front end work also. Moog parts
    250k miles

    $14,000 cash

    I have seen guys asking $19k to $22K for trucks in worse condition

    Maybe all hope is not lost, keep looking guys. They are still out there

        Absolutely love everything about it except the mileage. That’s a sharp truck and appears it has obviously been very well taken care of. You are right that’s a good deal and since it’s a Duramax maybe you will have good luck. With any used vehicle (diesel or not) you take a chance on having something wear out. Of course diesels are way more costly on repairs.

          That is true, but at that price I can afford a few repairs...

              You are not kidding. I have seen lots of people here trying to sell used pickups for more than I paid for new trucks.....what is even funnier are all of the people that post about it being a great deal and how man that one will not last long. I have found that most people have no clue about buying a vehicle. They go to the dealership and fall in love with one and then they just have to have it.

                I agree 100%. I have seen prices on here for the same truck I have and they are trying to sell it for more than I paid for mine 2 years ago.

                      The most people are buying the 2018 diesel fords, the better the pricing is getting on those 2015 platinum or king ranch f350s[emoji39]

                              Yep, used truck prices are crazy.

                              On the flip, my wife has really been wanting me to downsize from my z71 to a mid-size SUV. So I've been to a few dealerships looking at new vehicles and the trade-in value of my truck is laughable.

                              It's a 2007, Chevy z71 and the dealer offered me like 50% of the low-end private party value (using "fair" condition on KBB).
