We have an 03 Westlake and are interested in a new Niagra. Is NADA the only guide for pricing? I am aware the dealer will try and "steal the trade", so I just wanted to be armed with as much as possible. I really dont want to fuss with selling it myself. Thanks

Your beloved PU is worth every penny that the BUYER is willing to pay. Buyers set the price not the seller. :mad:

If that were the case there would not be auto dealers, rv dealers, or anyone else in business. Can anyone with any sense help me out with this?

I would check Ebay and Craig's list and see what other owners sold theirs for or are currently selling them for.   I would also go to a dealer and see what they offer for it.  Just don't take that offer right there and then...   If you do;  you are just asking to be ripped off.

I am sorry I gave you a answer you didn't like or understand but it's the truth no matter what your selling. I may want $200,000 for my house but if all the buyers are only willing to pay $100,000 then that's all it's worth.

So while you think your PU is worth $7500 the dealer is only willing to pay you $5200. Now your PU is only worth $5200 until you find someone willing to raise the ante.

BTW I never pay retail for because I know they want my money and I set the price I am willing to pay. Either the seller comes to terms with me or my money walks and a seller hates to see money walk away.

Bottom line as you know, your always going to get a better price selling it on your own.

Good Luck on your new PU. I hope it all works out for you.

BILLYBOB, some people should stick with making dinner, doing the wash, and what ever else you do when you do nothing. Please, if you don't know, don't pretend or give some excuse. If you read my question you wouldn't of had to waste my time reading your simple answer. Thanks for your .2 anyway. By the way,whats for dinner?

Dinner was BBQ chicken.

BTW yesterday of doing nothing was responding to a three alarm fire in the town. Since I was taking my ICS exams at the fire hall our truck was first on the scene and had to do a victim rescue while fighting the fire. But that is just part of helping people here as a volunteer fire fighter. NOW what did you do yesterday that was so important besides TRYING to belittle someone.

PS we're always looking for a few good men/women to join our "left field"  :D

I think you are really getting out of line. you came here asking for the forms opinions on selling your PU. and different members have given you there opinions. if you don't like the answer their is no reason to belittle someone because of it.
where's the LOVE.............  :confused:

THANKS for the invite. I will be close to you come July as we will be in Yellowstone for a few days.  Maybe the next time we pull the PU out west as I would really enjoy a tour of your Department.
