I think thats a little high, but I dont know how many miles that translates to. Id say about $13,000 max if it is at about 120,000 miles.

All I know is the chrome junk has gotta come off.

I don't know what the conversion for Kilometers is to miles but frankly I don't care. I'm thinking the truck has roughly between 100,000-150,000 miles on it. No it is not worth that much. Those aftermarket accessories don't add much of anything to the value. Don't let them trick you into thinking that. I'd go on www.nada.com or www.edmunds.com and look into the value of them but I'm thinking something like $7-8,000.

1 mile = 1.609344 kilometers
Straight from google. 12862 miles. Approximately. This is also in Canadian Dollars. Also Canadian Market. Which is more expensive then the American Market.

I think you left a 0 off the end of that mileage conversion. I don't know what the difference is between US and Canadian dollars. I know my 03 GMC Sierra SLE single cab/step side bed without 4x4 with 45,000miles on it is only worth about $10,500 but the value of vehicles is different depending on what region you live in too. It is also probably a lot different in Canada then it is in the US so your kinda wasting your time asking us to be honest. Call up a local bank and ask them to calculate the worth of it based on the Make, Model, Year, body style, and mileage. If you have the VIN handy that helps out a lot too.

128623 miles. My appologies. And the Canadian Dollar, was worth 0.0002 more then the American, so you might aswell call it even. And this will be my first vehicle purchase that has not been from Family, or friends. And i do not know how to tell them to reduce the price. Any suggestions? And also, thank you for the fast replies. I greatly appreciate your support.

RE: Is this truck worth the money?
 

lol, when I said 13,000 I accounted for the fact that it was in Canadian dollars. In US dollars, Id say its worth about $9500. +/-

[align=center] 14,000.00 CAD = 14,014.01 USD
Canada Dollars United States Dollars
1 CAD = 1.00100 USD 1 USD = 0.999000 CAD

[/align]Thats the price difference at the current moment.

RE: Is this truck worth the money?
 

Actually it's pretty easy. First you find out how much it is officially worth whether you look it up online or call your bank and ask them to calculate it for you. Then you call the owner of the vehicle and say hey I know your truck is only worth $X,XXX.00 and I'm willing to give you what it's worth. And to be fair since it does look "prettied up" you might throw an extra $100-200 above what it's worth at them. If your not mechanically inclined, before you go making any offers get it checked out by a local shop to see if there are any problems and also check online to see if it's been wrecked.

that truck would go for 6 or 7 grand here

RE: Is this truck worth the money?
 

I would not pay $14,000 for a truck with 128,000 miles on it. My wife and i bought her '02 Avalanche a couple years ago with approx 81,000 miles, and we payed $14,000 for that. And i agree, the chrome stuff has to come off, it does the truck no justice. Just my .02 worth tho, thanx, Jim

RE: Is this truck worth the money?
 

I would say 6 to 7 grand also. I payed 10,000 for a 2000 chevy ext cab 2 and a half years ago and it only hade 82,000 miles on it.

RE: Is this truck worth the money?
 

I would say 11,000 or 12,000 tops in PA and that would be in mint condition. The economy right now is not in favor of trucks. Most KBB prices have dropped a few thousand over the past year.

RE: Is this truck worth the money?
 

Mine is a 2000 silverado with all the same options and a few less aftermarket parts and I bought it 8 months ago with 98,000 miles on it for 9,000.00. Everything is in good shape and works great so I wouldnt pay that much for that truck. It doesnt seem like it could be worth that much!

RE: Is this truck worth the money?
 

I emailed the man back about the truck saying that its not worth $14,000, but its worth $9,500. and i'll give you how much its worth. And i also asked for the VIN, to do a check on it.

Thanks for all the replies. I appreciate the support.

RE: Is this truck worth the money?
 

Well, I guess I'm not buying that truck. I told him that it was worth $9,500.00 and I would give him what it's worth, and he asked me if that was a joke. And said that the lots are selling way over that. And i know that, because lots overprice. And i also asked for the VIN # and he denied me.

I do not want to deal with someone like that.

Thanks for the replies, and sorry for the result.

RE: Is this truck worth the money?
 

Yeah you did the best thing its only worth about $9.000

RE: Is this truck worth the money?
 

My buddy recently bought a 2002 with 56,000 miles in great condition for $11,000. It's an extended cab, not 4 door. Remember the truck is almost 7 years old.
