You insinuated it
I called the dealer and asked what the process is to sell a truck to them. They told me that was part of the process.
Can you guys help me price my truck

I think that was the dealer's way of saying they aren't really interested in buying a used truck to try and sell. Not a lot of profit in buying a used truck, especially if they have to potentially sink a few thousand into it in order to put it on their lot. It's not like the potential loss is offset by the sale and service of a new truck.
If you were trading it in on a brand new one I doubt they'd charge 2 hours to inspect it. Sales would probably eat the inspection cost just to help get the sale on the new truck. If they can't at least break even on the old truck they'll sometimes just flat out refuse the trade in.FullMetalJacket, Rideandrepair, Arctic_fox and 4 others Thank this. -

If you are desperate to sell something, you are negotiating from a position of weakness.
You need to sell it: nobody needs to buy it.
“just needs” and theres an undiagnosed list of things/
Put it up for sale and see what you get for offers. If you have to sell it in a month, you’re prolly looking at under $20k
