i ain't got the time to do a 100% check on the value of that particular truck you're all butt hurt about, but THIS ONE is a year older and OVER a million miles, and they want $42,000
so (to me) the guy that bought that one at auction? sold it for close to or at BOOK VALUE..
you would not have been ripped off, you just didn't jump at the auction price.

The guy also took a gamble buying it at auction, sometimes they pay off, and sometimes they cost, if he intends to stay in business he has to capitalize on the ones that pays off. I doubt he ties his money up, just to make someone a screaming deal on a truck,they could have bid on themselves, if they had the means to do so.

I think if dealer sold this truck to rArA for 25k , he would still post his purchase complaining how stupid seller is and how great of a deal he got
Snailexpress, Opendeckin, buddyd157 and 2 others Thank this. -
I've got 2 trucks in my hood going for $15G each.
I'll buy em and sell them to anyone for $100G each.
That's about the going rate for older beatup over the hill trucks in my hood. And these trucks are in much nicer shape. With looks to die for.buddyd157 Thanks this. -
Funny it was 475 hp at auction but some how it became a 550 on the sales lot...
buddyd157 Thanks this.
