Selling tips

I want to sell my Ranger and get a F-150 or F-250 extended cab with a long bed. I am buying a house and could use the full size truck for some renovation work and if I ever need to pull a trailer, it will be a lot easier with the full size truck.

So I've got my truck listed for sale at a couple places but I've noticed on Ebay and Autotrader that the Rangers aren't going for much and there just aren't many listed.

So how can I make mine stand out? And what are some selling tips I could use? Like phrases to use in the ad, etc, etc...
Any car dealers in here wanna clue me in of selling techniques???

I need to sell ASAP, I could use some of the money for closing on the house also.

Thanks for any help.

Selling tips

I have my best luck puttin my stuff at then end of the driveway. I had an add in the newspaper for the longest time for my trailer and I had the trailer at the end of the driveway as well and thats what ended up selling it. I also find that not telling a lot of info in the add helps, a short description ex.

1993 Ford Ranger 4x4 6 cyl. $5500 O.B.O. ###-####.

Then they are forced to call to find out more and boom let your selling skills go mad. This all depends on if you enjoy selling things, I am a salesmen at heart which is horrible but I enjoy it. Good Luck
