Hi guys! haven't been
on for awhile and hope everybody is doing well.
Anyway, HELP!!! My husband and I are in the market for a Dodge
truck. Looked all over town this weekend and almost found something we
liked.
However, since horsepeople drive trucks and haul trailers I figured this
was the best place to get some advice regarding price so we don't get ripped
off. We don't have a lot of trust for salesman.
So this is where we need help...Price...we are looking for a Dodge pickup
2500. Decided on a long bed quad cab rather than a short bed although we
liked both and the turning radius seemed to be okay for both. We'd like to
find something with mileage around 60,000 and up a little used. and the
1999-2001 year would be nice.... My husband likes cummings engines being an
auto tech for 30 years so we are not too concerned with mileage but something in
that range would be okay.
So what do some of you feel would be a fair price to pay for something like
this in good to excellent condition within those parameters? We need to
get a good idea of fair so we don't pay too much. There are a lot of
hungry salesman out there and we know they have to make a living, but we want a
good deal and don't want to spend more than is reasonable. Also, anybody
know anyone personally who is trustworthy to purchase from in our area?
Lots of questions!
My husband also said he'd be willing to go to Texas and look around for a
truck as he thinks we can get a better buy if we have to..But really we
need to fully educate ourselves to what we can realistically get for our
$$.
We do have some friends that live there, but that would be if we can't get
a fair deal around here....
