thats it tell me what you think on s price, i was shooting for the $2500-3000 range but i don't know.
 






Nice truck and good luck with the sale. If you were closer, I would have picked it up instead of the Jeep I just bought last week.

i really don't think you'll have a problem getting atleast the $2500. its a very nice looking truck...
 












Who makes the brush gaurd you have & where did yo get it?
 






its just an ebay special payed 100 bucks for it
 






You should just keep it, looks very nice. With all the mods you've got, look for at least 6-6.5K. It does have alot of miles on it, and that is what alot of people look at.
 






Hold on!That is a nice rig ,aim higher start out higher you can always come down.I see rust buckets go for that price range, I agree with UtahX.
 






I know some one that just spent 2500 on a 96 not nearly as nice as yours, and that price was only because he got a good deal on it. I say start with about 4000 and go down from there.
 






I woulda thought 4-6K
 






youd probably be much better off selling some of your aftermarket parts (ex the dvd) on this site, or on ebay, and then selling the rig. To the average buyer, many of those things arent worth as much as someone else is willing to pay. Good luck. I like your X a lot, and even if you take out some of the stuff, still shoot for 5k.

Very good suggestion.
 






I'm intrested in the brush guard and lights.

i would easily pay 6-8K

I'm going to be straight with you. It has a lot of miles, and you probably maintained it well by the looks of it, but this will scare off A LOT of potential buyers. Secondly you have a lot of custom stuff that will only appeal to people who would like their vehicle to look like yours. Thirdly most people on here would pay more because they are interested in modding their ex, and lastly let's face it the used car market in Detroit sucks. There are so many people selling used vehicles at a loss it's crazy. I think you can probably get the $2500 you are thinking out of it without sitting on it too long. My brother is looking for a truck and is probably gonna be spending about 2500, only problem is he is trying to sell his car for 2500 to buy a truck. If he makes a sale i'll let him know about your vehicle. Good luck with the sale.
