I would say so, but you should have how many miles are on it in the ad, a/c?, and clean the crap out of the cab for interior shots

I would think that is on the pricey side... especially with mismatched bed...

With the mismatched bed, I would also say its a bit high. Also, Brad nailed it on the money with cleaning the cab out!

The truck doesn't look worth that much in the pictures. A little cleanup and some more flattering pictures, and the truck would be more likely to sell at $2500. If I was looking for a truck, I wouldn't even ask a question about that one to be honest.

Well, thanks for your honest opinions. I just threw it on there before i got it cleaned up, i plan on cleaning it tomorrow and putting it out by the road. I thought about bondoing and painting the bed but im kinda afraid people will think im hideing a bunch of problems. I always get tired of the people that try calling offering below scrap price from BFE! I

That's way to much for that truck. That truck rolling through the auction wouldn't bring $1k Also made the mistake of first thinking it was the black one in your bottom sig, which at $2500, would be worth it. Then clicked on the ad link and realized otherwise.

Auctions dont mean S#!+. Cars get given away there. Notice all the dealers there? Buying all the cars. They do that so they can resell them, And make money

Price comes down to location and what someone is willing to pay

How many miles on the engine? That is not in the ad, says about 40k on reman jasper trans (be able to prove this with paperwork). Also, if it were me,I would just shoot a quick paint job on the bed to match it up. What shape are the tires in, and what tread are they? I would also patch the leaky rear gas tank if possible. JB weld goes a long way for a short-term patch Fix those few issues and I think $2500 would be a decent starting point (assuming the engine doesn't have a million miles on it).
