Thanks Tim,
I havent actually bought the truck yet. I left them a check, and they let me take the truck overnight. I like the truck, but I have some issues with it. It has a few minor dents, and the chrome plactic grill is cracked. It's dosent have the fender flares, or bug defelector. My trailer light plug is'nt compatable with the light plug on the truck (without a adapter). And no bed liner. The biggest thing is my 2 year old barely fits in the back, his feet have to rest on the center console.
According to all local research, and national research I've done, I should be able to get the truck for around $20k. They dont seem to want to go lower than $21,700. Auuto puts the local value at $17k lo-$21k average- and $25k as a high, and those are asking prices.
I'm just going to take it in when I'm supposed to sign papers and tell them to get it to $20K
I talked to the original owner on the phone last night, he put a new injector pump and pick up pump in around 40kmi because the pick up pump quit which in turn burned up the inj pump.
He turned it in after a 3 year lease and had to pay because the value was $21k on it and he owed $23k so there was a $2k residual. I'm not sure how that works, but does that mean the dealer bought it from him for $21? I dont think so.
Sorry to take up space on a non PW subject, but it is Dodge related, and I pretty much know and trust everyone here ( and a lot of you use the Dodge TD's for hauling around your PW's). If I go to another site who know who will be giving me advice? Probably some pimply faced 12yo, skipping school, who really wants a TD and has no clue!
