Your truck plus 3 grand eh? I would have asked the salesman if he was on glue and walked out. I'm really glad I traded my ranger while it was still worth something

X2 WTF. That truck was nowhere near worth what they were asking for it and then they are going to throw you an offer like that for your truck???? I wouldve hit him in his mouth just for saying that offer.

Keep it. Just because you don't use your truck to its limits everyday doesn't mean you should downgrade.

Yes, my wife drives the Mazda every day. We switch back and forth most of the time as our drives are about the same distance. She refuses to drive the truck in the snow though! lol

Id say keep it unless you get a good deal off Kiijijij or CL.

I would never take your truck to a stealership.

That's the plan! I was just curious as to what they'd give me for it.

Pedro it's a pain in the butt. It's basicly like importing a vehicle from japan. Tons of paler work, emission status, mileage and speed correction

Anyone who thinks the reg cab is worth more/equal to his 2007 Level ll is a f*cking fool.

His current truck is worth at least $15,000 (minimum) here in Colorado. If you trade straight up your a fool and if trade your truck plus add cash you should be shot.

Keep what you have. Is the hassle of selling or trading your current ride really worth the gain? Maybe.... maybe not.

It'd be worth it depending on what I end up with... I won't be doing anything unless I can end up with a low-ish mile 06+ and about $5K in my pocket!

If you ever plan on turning your truck back to stock, shoot me a pm. I'd definitely drive down to take somethings off your hands.
