This is one of the things I was explaining to my daughter. It's low miles yes but ten year old weather stripping, paint and many other things that age can affect just as much as use.
Is it worth $29500

It’s not the miles, it’s the age and how the environment microscopically eats things. Essentially, everything breaks down chemically over time, especially when on the road or the sun, rain, salt, ice, etc.
Case in point. December, my girl and I bought a 2002 TrailBlazer with 70k miles on it. The body was great and no dents and no wrecks on CarFax.
But: Water pump was leaking, driver's door panel grab handle was broken, 3 of 4 speakers did not work, fluids had never been changed, one tire was different than the other 3 tires, rear hatch struts were shot, the cargo cover screen was missing, had an intermittent "no crank" problem and the fuel filter was clogged. I have taken care of each one of these and I did negotiate a fair price with all this in mind. I drove it home, before purchase, and put up on ramps and did a complete inspection.
crashes, replaced core support at only 30k miles and the ac doesn't work?
yeah nah. my 0.02 cents is I wouldn't touch this thing if I was in the the market. I gotta think for that money you can find other interesting things.

a dealer is asking 30k for a wrecked 2013 that the ac doesn't doesn't work on and will probably get it. what on earth makes you think the market has crashed?

It has not even had an oil change since 10/30/2021 Yeah that oil is garbage most likely fuel and water contaminated .... Highly surprised it hasn't completely blown it self apart (some do turn into wet toilet paper or rust out.)

all you just posted just makes the point the market hasn't crashed.. sure things are going to slowly turn around as dealers get new cars in and start making deals again, lot more meat on the bone to juggle the numbers around on new inventory when stock is high. somewhere in 2024 when the feds pivot and start to lower interest rates, banks will start cutting good deals monthly payment wise and used prices will fall, because new ones are eaiser to buy. but none of that is actually a crash, consider it a market correction at best. A crash would they get priced less than what they were before all this nonsense happened.
unless this dealer is completely out of touch, which they don't stay in business long if they are. he's going to get pretty close to asking price for this. things are worth what they sell for, not what you think they should sell for.
I just got a quote for a car port. $22k, 3 years ago at the middle of covid when limber as 60$ for a 2x4. that same car port was 8500. wood cost has returned to mostly normal, the Mexicans building it aren't getting paid any more money and if they are it's a few bucks, that 200% mark up is straight profit and until people stop spending, it's not going to go down. we are pretty far from a crash, unless our definitions of a crash are completely different than mine.

that you think a 08 hybrid with a dead battery is worth 13k, also having been driven on that bad battery for the last 5 years, which is just hell on the tranny means you don't believe the market has crashed as well. I wouldn't offer you 5k for it, I'd be afraid you'd accept it. and I find the trucks interesting lol.
