i have a 99 2wd ranger with 4.10 gear ratio. oh yea it doesnt run either. ok i found a used car lot that would take a trade on it. they have 04 4wd ext cab ranger NICE TRUCK they want $17500 with no trade, with trade i can get it for $14500. the 04 ranger has 32344 miles on it. is that too high or what do you guys think.

 

is the 04 loaded? I got my 06 for a little over $14k new 4.0 4x4 4 door auto, but I dont have power options.

 

its got cd player and cruise thats about it. it does have a 4.0l sohc

 

X2 you really can't judge a trucks price without seeing what it's got. (and how it runs)
it's like a person saying they have a 1969 road runner thats all rusted out and not running, asking $10,000 for it. (LOL) however the same car thats showworthy and fixed up could be worth over $100,000.

 

WOW!!!! that is highly outrageous......dont even think about paying $14,000 for it....that is nuts.......get your truck fixed.....

 

well i did drive it and it drives great the last owner kept the truck in great condition everything works on it and all. the engine runs smooth. its been tanken care of.

 

yea but like stated above, you can get a brand new truck for about that..........unless you enjoy being screwed...., i wouldn't buy it...

 

Go to www.kbb.com (kelly blue book). You can select the year, model, accessories and condition and mileage and the site will calculate what the trade in value would be, what you should expect to pay if buying privately, or what you will pay a dealer for it. I foind their estimates to be accurate.

 

maybe in NY, but in the Midwest, KBB and NADA sets the prices extremely high.....this part of the country doesn't have the extreme mark up..........their prices are outrageous.....

 

The KBB for that truck, using your zip code (62812) is a little over $15,300 SR, and your truck, this estimate is more rough, is worth about $2,000 trade-in in "fair" condition (minor mechanical problems)

Please, I mean you no offence, but a lot of used car lots make ends meet by charging unknowing people outrageous prices. Either way you're getting shafted. Get a printout from KBB and put it to his face, and he will drop down to KBB value rather than lose a sale. I'd get a mechanic friend to come loo kit over for you, too, just to be safe.

 

Seems high to me IMO.

In 2003 I bought a 2001 Ranger 4wd Ext cab 4.0 XLT (flairside bed) with 24,000 miles. Then the high book was $18,500. I paid $11,700.

Shop around there are some steals out there.

 

alright thanks for the advice guys
