Bidding on this right now

[OR VietVet]

Earlier, my bid of $15,250.00 was over bid with $20k. It checks out at KBB for close to $30k and I will be damned if I am going to pay that because I still gotta get it across country. Let's say I won at $30k, then as the buyer I pay 5% to B.A.T and that would be $1500.00 and then I have to pay the higher priced diesel fuel to drive from North Carolina, and cost to get there and the rooms to rent coming across country and my food. I figure that I will be in the range of close to $35k, all in. Nope, I am too cheap to do that. Tempting yes, but as has been said, the truck is more than I need and only worth it to me if I get it at a price that is below what it is worth. The auctions are starting to tighten up unless the rig is just a Unicorn that someone just has to have and is a monster rig.

Anyone care to guess what the winning bid will be?
Here in Canada unit like that 25+K.

Edit that,,,,30+K

I was going to post the same thing but didn't want to scare the vet lol
I really don't know what the market is on a dually but my guess is 25-30 also, it is a good year anyway.

I'm gonna say 35k.

I'm gonna say 35k.

Considering a new one is 100K, you maybe right.

And sometimes getting the title made out is a real chore for a cross country purchase, and those taxes too.

But there are distinct advantages to this truck that would make me bid more..
2006 LB7 - Last full year, and IMO best year, for the DM without the damned failure prone EPA stuff, unless you can find a OBS 2007, which in the market is hens teeth.
Parts are easier to find for the 2006 being that it was a full year production.

Those mirrors gotta go. It is a true mirror delete truck... But still has the power mirror control. Maybe the wiring is still in the door.. But what to do about those holes!

I agree.. if I was in the market, I would consider this, but not at 30k.

Bidding turned stale at 20k.. There is still hope.. Maybe.

It has been at $20k for a day and just tonight I bid $20,250.00. Shall see.

I've gotten trucks similar to that over the years. It wasn't used commercially. It was a tow vehicle for a camper probably. The flip over ball means it was a large fifth wheel camper. It might not ever have been driven in the snow, although residual salt might have worked its way in.
