I should clarify it is a classic not a new style.

D-rod, I understand your point about the price variances. Take a look on autotrader or cars.com in zipcode 95401. For some reason, prices in California and Nevada are higher than out your way. It's frustrating, but it is the reality of where we live.

KBB Private Party is 33-34K.

I could save some money by flying to Oklahoma, but it's not worth the hassle and time for the money I would save.

What color? Cali is its own market, and that isn't tto bad of a price for the milage. My only advice (As I am working on selling a diesel right now) is don't rush too much, as some better deals may pop up. Diesel sales (At least in the midwest) are really slowing down due to fuel prices. Good luck!!

Trying to get your post count up there, Silverbullet?
Fleet Vehicle? ==> Company owned?

Otherwise, sounds about right to me without looking it up on KBB. Should be a great tow vehicle. Does it have the Allison? (or did I miss that?)

I'd lowball an offer and see if they take it.

Large vehicles are not exactly flying off lots right now.

Diesels are doing better than gas, but not by much - nobody is committing long-term to anything that hogs fuel.

That vehicle lists new at probably $45-48K. Probably has a $5K discount on it. Probably can be had new for $38K right now. It's 2 years old, plus previous body style.

I'd offer $25K cash, and see if they take it.

I'm assuming it must have been something like that. It's definitely not a work truck. Perhaps and owners truck or something similar.

It does have the allison. In fact it is the 6 speed allison. I wish it had the duramax without all the smog crap, but I can't have it all.
