Okay, so a guy i work with wants to buy my truck, AS IS, he just told me to think of a price,and I was wondering what you all, as fellow frontier owners, thought would be a fair price. its a yellow(with lots of scratched in pintriping ) 2000 frontier. cc auto 4x2 v6 new rebuilt heads, 160,000 miles on the odo, blown transmission, priced transmissions locally for under 600. fender flares have been removed/ ripped off, drivers side window motor and track are missing(window is held up by a 1x2 currently. lol). General grabber UHP's with about 80% tread life remaining. no dents, no rust, interior is good. i don't really have any pictures of it right now, it is in a shop so i can't get to it sorry. lol. overall the truck looks good, just been used for what it was built for. thanks.

Is the truck stock, or do you have any mods done to it?

 

[kahfamily1]

Damn, thats a good question. Couple grand?

 

[wolfman437]

Id price a little higher then what you looking to get for it, that way if he talks you down a little your still right at what you wanted for it.

 

[BigWood88]

only mod done (before i got it) that i can tell is the did a cat back exhaust via glass pack muffler. and a 1 into 2 AR racing(autzone) tip. not sure on teh exact size of the exaust. id say close to 3" from the cats back. the blue book value for the truck in fair condition is 4785, i would say its a little less than fair condition only because of the tranny. reverse is the only working gear. also has a brand new radiator, distributer,and fuel pump

Id tell him 4k and if he dickers with you end around 3500 or so and call it good. Its obviously a capable truck that with a little work could take him places.

 

[BigWood88]

yea that sounds very reasonable. thanks. your helpin me out on 2 dif subjects right now lmao. much appreciated. and yes, when i got the truck i was very surprised at what ( for a 2wd) it was capable of. it has even impressed a buddy of mine that rode with me almost every time i went "2 wheelin" (he drives a 4x4 82 bronco lifted 6 or 8 inches on 35" ) :fantastic:

In my 2nd gen i when places my buddies with theor 4wd yotas went. One had to put it in four low to get up a hill, i just put it in first gear and let it crawl right up it.

 

[BigWood88]

hah, yes i believe it. love these trucks.which is why (as you already know) im about to spend a lot of time and money on one. lol. aight don't wanna go off sunject to far. thanks for your help, will keep posted what comes about.

 

[wolfman437]

Sounds good, cant wait to hear what you get for the truck.

I'd say that's a good guess.

NADA rough trade-in is $4,000. This truck would go for probably half of that at auction so I think your best bet would be:

Tell him $4k.

When he *****es about having to replace the tranny, tell him you found one for $600 so you'll nock that off but $3400 is your rock bottom.


good luck
