1997 OBS Value???

Hi guys,

I'm looking for some unbiased opinions on what to ask for my truck, and don't want to turn this into an advertisement so I'm not including pictures.

Here are some details:
- Dark Blue in color
- Single cab, long bed
- 4" lift
- Miles: 103,500
- New tranny w/ billet torque converter less than 1000 miles ago
- MT Baja ATZ P3 35" tires less than 400 miles ago
- TS 6 position tuner and pillar gauges about 1500 miles ago
- Interior condition: Almost excellent
- Cab and hood condition/paint: Very good
- Bed condition/paint: Fair

There is a lot more that I could list here, but I'm trying to keep it simple.

Thanks guys!!

It’s all about location. Like Adam said, check Craigslist to see what they are going for in your area

From my experience, the trans, lift, tires and 6 position chip do not add any value. In fact, the lift and tires may take away value unless you can find someone that wants that exact truck.
Then from there, if it's a rusty truck, or solid southern/western truck.
Where are you and where is the truck from?

I do not want a lifted truck with 35" mud terrains, talk about a slowass truck that will yield terrible fuel economy.

Who built the trans and do you have receipts?

My F150 was new in Houston, TX...still there, has some modest rust.

Around here? People would be *asking* $15k. They might get $9-10k.

What the hell sort of money do people ask for their 7.3 SD trucks? Just curious.
