All depends on where you are at and what the market for Pickups are in your area. While KBB is usually a little out to lunch on the high side, NADA is supposed to be what dealers in your area have reported as an actual sale price on similar vehicles. I usually look for a price half-way between trade-in and private party values. In my area if it runs a pickup is usually worth a minimum of $2500.00.

From the overall description, which isn't a lot I would say somewhere in the neighborhood of $3k give or take $300. It is all going to depend on how much they got in it. Make them an offer and see what they say? Worse that can happen is they throw you off the lot. This has only happened to me one time. I usually don't buy used cars from Bubba lots anyways. This doesn't sound like a vehicle that a dealership would keep on the lot. Sounds to much like a beater.

I real good way to find out what it is worth in your area is to go to

The truck is worth whatever the dealer can get for it. If the asking price is too high, the truck will stay on the lot for a while.

However, dealers often put customers with bad credit into overpriced vehicles.

As they say in the car business, "there's an ass for every seat."

The same truck could likley be had for $2500 on the street.

Thanks to everyone who posted. The truck seems to be in fairly good condition, but apparently these things don't hold their value as well as I thought. I'm looking for one as an adddition to my car (paying cash).
