Whoa...just did a quick search and this is crazy. 100K for this truck. Mine is the '16 version of this with 11k miles on it. I wonder how much I can get for it in SoCal.

That's just stupidity! I'm in the market for a new truck but I'll probably wait it out until prices drop back normal

100k seems a little high. 88-95 Silverado,s are super Hot again, just like the 90,s. I predicted 10 yrs ago, they would be the most sought after vehicle. Low mi there selling for around 35k. I found a 42k mi ext cab all white, with a true Texas bumper for 10k. Close match to mine in the 90,s, I had a 1 ton 5 sp in mine. I,ll hv to check if earthquake amps is in buisness yet, then I,ll hv a matching stereo.haha

Take them up on the offer and come back to us if that's actually the case. This tactic has been around pre-covid (offering more than what you bought it for) to get foot traffic in at the dealership. Don't ask me how I know Wink

Truck shortages are real. My son sells new chevys. They are buying back every truck, tahoe, suburban they can while production is halted. He had a 2021 z71 with 4500 miles on it, his manager gave him $5k over sale price, sold it 30 minutes later for 7500 over that. My cousin just did the same with his 2020 z71, my son bought it and sold it within the hour

Hmmmm, I had no idea this frenzy was affecting the truck market too. I have a like new totally loaded 2016 cummins 4x4 that has 11K miles on it. I only take it on road trips and then it sits inside on a trickle charger while I drive my older truck. It's all blacked out and dialed in. So from what you guys have seen I should be able to sell it for a premium during this frenzy? I don't want to sell it because it's all dialed in with stereo, tint, wheels/tires, leveling kit, etc but if I could get some good money for it I just might let it go.
Ford is buying every 250 and 350 diesel they can find. Chevy shut down the equinox, trailblazer plant to run tahoes and shut down the camaro plant to run trucks. So the inventory balance is shifting. Trucks and tahoes will start coming in in May and camaros, trailblazers and equinox will be out of stock. Its nuts. But yes, you have a fairly new truck, low to mid miles, you will get a premium out of it, no questions asked.

Keep the lease vehicle inventor down, when leases are up you give the Car renter/Leaser the option of 1 type of vehicle and that will be EV.

Volvo gave me the option last month when i got a new s60. When this lease is up, i can bring all 3 of my volvos in and go to their electric s60 or xc90 and payment stays where i am in this one. They will install the charging station for free

I see a lot of sky high prices but I doubt they are getting those numbers. Yes, still a seller's
market but not a delusional seller's market.

I had to sell a couple bikes recently and the sale prices, though healthy, were not crazy.
(And my bikes were fugging MINT. I mean really, really good condition.)

Here’s the western Washington market. Makes me f*****g sick. I paid $1800 for a 01 CR 250 in 2016 that was a low hour bike. Original chain, sprockets and, even both tires.


At best those are 2500 and only because they look restored

Just got back in the game with a great deal on 17 YZ450. It’s locked up next to my 75 Bronco so I think I’ll hang to both for a bit 😬
Not a week goes by though without a knock on my door or a note in my mailbox inquiring about that Bronco. Gonna have to keep the shop door closed up a little better now I guess.

I had. 2021 giant fathom hardtail mountain bike. Paid 1300 new and put bars and a stem on it and sold it for 1700$. People will pay if they can’t get it and really want it.

Sold my daughters 2001 XR50 for $1000 within 3 hours of posting it this week. I listed high figuring i would negotiate down from there and hopefully weed out some of the bullshit. Good looking 50, but i was honestly shocked at how fast it sold and the people were pumped about it.
The mini bike or beginner bikes are crazy high over the past year or so here in SoCal. I sold a 2005 TTR90E for $1500. I sold it in three hours. It was bought 5 years ago for $700. I have been looking for a TTR125 to replace it for my granddaughter as she has out grown the 90. Everybody wants $2300 - $3000 for these TTR125s from 2002 - 2009. They sold for $2,995 new. After looking for about 3 months I had to pony up and we paid $2300 for a good 2005 model. I can't believe what the market is for these smaller bikes now. I bought my 2012 KTM SXF350 in great shape for $3000 a year ago. Go figure. I guess we can thank COVID for it as over the past year people have been buying up all the mini bikes for something to do outside with their kids. So it's good for the sport to get people out there but not so good for peoples wallet.

I'm hoping the prices will hold out long enough for me to get my son's TT-R110 sold. At the moment, I'm pretty certain I can sell it for $2K. When the market regains its sanity, it will be worth about half that.
If you get a buyer come look at right away, don't go down on your price. They will pay otherwise they wouldn't have come to look at it right away. If you don't sell it in a week you might have to lower the price a little. When I sold my granddaughter's TTR-90 for $1500 I guy came down to look at it the same afternoon I posted it. He offered me a lower price and I told him no I just posted it. He handed me the full price.

Glad I got by last bike free from a trash pile. I'd rather rebuild old two strokes than drop $10k on a new four-stroke.

Yeah NCY had the best graphics, bike is Pedro,s 95 sx bike, came with the factory linkage. Sold it for 2,300, had trouble getting rid of it. Here is a 98 250, I bought new and sold 3 months later, fresh graphics, Noleen silencer.

97 125 was Jeff Wiloh,s Noleen national bike, I smashed the Noleen pipe, bill,s on there. Sold that for 2,200 , trouble selling that also. A lot of parts with both bikes. That is a nascar replica front end, had the exhaust also, on the truck
