hey guys its been awhile some of you may know i sold my rumble bee 3 weeks ago so im looking for a newer truck. I sold it for a couple reasons 1 being I wanted a truck with more room.
Anyways I've been looking at a truck at a local dealer and was wondering what you guys thought.
Its a 2008 Ram 1500 quad cab 4x4 54k miles. It has a moonroof, powersliding rear window, center console fiberglass tonneau cover and its a sport. The only problem is the front bumper has a couple paint chips so it will need to be repainted.
Its a white truck which i've never really been a fan of but I was thinking a lift black wheels, headlights, tail lights, dark window tint and black tubular steps(it has chrome) and it would probably look pretty damn good.
anyways they are asking $25999
what do you think would be a good price to offer them? Im going back tomorrow to look some more and test drive it.
Hmmm, that seems like a very high price! I have a 2008 QC SLT 4x4 I purchased brand new with 8 miles on it for $22,000.00 out the door. Is this a Laramie your looking at? Hemi?
when I was buying my truck i fell in love with 2008 sport hemi with sun roof two tone leather the works and they wanted 23k when i went back it was sold i got my 08 4.7 for 20k
Yeah. kinda too high. If truck is second owner in future buyer then truck warrent cover is no longer good. Just becareful and check history about any truck you buy. Trying to find website you can look it up with Vin number.
You cant take in to account the short period of time that we stole our 08's. I also paid 23,000 for my new 08. 08's with 49,000 miles are listed at dealers in my area for 22k-26k. Check out all you used valu guides. I think you'll be suprised?
how the hell did you guys get 08's that cheap new? I think i live in the wrong area lol. I made a mistake when I looked at it again the salesman talked me into test driving a 2011 Black quad cab sport man i fell in love but without putting a lot of $$ down it would have been $600 a month could I afford it yeah but def not worth it for me. Still thinking about the 08 I might look for a 06 CTD though stilll really undercided.
I have a 2008 QC Big Horn so everything except sunroof leather and Nav. I paid 33K when the sticker was 40K... how the hell did you guys get yours so cheap? Im guessing i bought mine the week they went on the lot? 26k does seem pretty damn high for a used truck... i wouldnt pay more then 20!
When I bought mine (April 25, 2008) there was a special going on with with trucks that had leather and sunroofs. Advertised price, 26500. Sticker on mine was 38995. Took it back to the same dealer almost 2 years to the day........24,500 on trade.
i just bought my 08 quad, 2wd, hemi, tow package, sxt, got it for 21K i think was the price, (i was more concerned about the monthy payment), anyway it only has 22k miles, so id say they are a little high 4wd or not...
Agreed that the market is much different now, but still way too high IMO. I paid 26k for my 07 quad 4x4 Cummins with 20,000 miles and sold it two years later for 29k! Drove it for two years and still made money. But it's not likely that will happen again anytime soon.
