Nice truck. I am glad it worked out for you on your trade. My dealer wanted to give me $2000 less than KBB trade-in. He doesn't know it yet but I sold it for $4K over his offer and I let it go cheap just to keep them from making a killing on it.
All this after him saying, "wow what a nice truck and such low mileage". I hope he his disappointed when I pick up the new one without a trade.

I don't feel bad then, because I got in the middle of KBB trade-in Excellent condition for mine. I usually get the high end trade.
The saving grace up here for me is that there is no sales tax - so it was the same as getting the high end back home. (and back home the dealers where in the middle as well).
I basically told him when they were appraising it, that I knew what it was worth and a low ball offer would send me walking without even attempting to negotiate a trade.
Good for you on selling it for $4k more privately.
