Hustle them down another grand or so and I'd do it up. Truck looks to be in good shape.

Any car/truck that has been customized is going to be worth a good bit less than a clean stock truck. Unless it has all the customizations you want or need, or that you would do, then it may be worth more to you, but don't tell them that. Use KBB and Edmunds to get a good baseline then negotiate down from there.

The issues are, you never know much about the customizations, who did it and what corners were cut and etc. Have it inspected. In the past, I have brought cars home to hand wash them, this gives you a close up inspection of the paint, the undercarriage and etc. I have found paint issues in the past, evidence of accidents and abuse.

Remember, you can't loose what you don't have, so look at like a business deal until you sign the paperwork. Don't get emotional or you will loose.

But, it looks like a nice truck.

well it might look different because of the angle of the sun, ya no?
but i'll check it out, ill have to inspect it realllly well or just take it to a mechanic and have him inspect it.
it is pretty clean though
and really it is everything i need, just add exhaust, engine mods, and audio

damn that seems like a good deal to me. I got mine all stock with 118k miles for $10,900 plus a $2000 warranty. That truck looks sick as **** to me. maybe a lil bit bigger tires but other than that its tight. and yea its prolly been wrecked. I found out mine had been wrecked about 3 or 4 moths after I bought it but it runs fine and no problems. and I noticed it the same way you guys did. The paint on the drivers front quarter panel was off color from the rest. but it could just be the sun in the pic for yours.... no tellin til you get up close with your own eyes. and if you open the hood and look at the panels bolts, if you can see that they have been removed and put back then thats a clear indicator of a wreck.

clean title does NOT mean unwrecked.

clean title means never salvaged/totalled.



Persons with big heavy arses have been spending a LOT of time in that truck. even the back seats are all stretched.

I'd be having it checked out thoroughly, and offering 10-11 at best.
