Especially when the high private party book via kbb is 28k. The wheels kill it for me.

The wheels suck, but King coil-over shocks are no joke. Over $10K worth of suspension on that truck.

I'd have to lower it, mods add no value for me, I'd rather start with a stocker, that way I know it's done right.

The suspension is definitely a plus but it does not mean the truck is worth another $10K.

Well if the high Resale value of stock is 28k, the 33k is only 5k more ))

I was thinking of a reasonable asking price in the low twenties would be appropriate for this Ex. But then again just like anything else in life it’s only worth what the buyer is willing to pay.

well the Kelderman equivalent package is about $17K, so if this truck books for $28K and they want $33K that is only $5K extra for all the aftermarket add ons of which there seem to be plenty.

that wants that lift and wheels seems ok.

Don`t forget the X is now a niche vehicle, and that means even used they hold a premium. usually only when low miles and clean. when they are high miles and run down then they can be bought for lower prices, although then you are getting junk!

It still seems like buying they cost premium.
Selling (or insurance claim) and the value is low.
bought mine 2 and a half years ago w/98k for
$24k, still see similar for slighly less now 2.5 years
older, truly amazing.
My. Interior is still mint and can't tell its 8-9 years
old, now w/125k. PO recovered driver seat...
