I told the person that wants to buy my old truck I peed in the back seat multiple times and had weird sex back there and he still wants it .

Maybe I should raise my price, it wasn’t even for sale .

Because people have lost their minds and are buying into it.

Friend of mine, her 23yo daughter just paid 60k for a new truck. Another person I know, his son, 24YO, paid 80k for a new truck.

Buy one vehicle and drive it for the rest of your life.

If everyone did this, the prices of new cars and trucks would plummet.

The 12v, inline 6 Cummins 5.9L diesel has few equals. Probably none. They built this 30 years ago. and stopped 10 years later.

$30,000 doesn't go far nowadays. It doesn't come in any faster, but it don't go far.

But that truck didn't cost $30,000 in 1995, did it? I was high-end for the first generation Rams, and I never priced a Cummins, but I doubt if it was $25,000.

Maybe the seller thinks it has collector cachet. Seller is dreaming. What's KBB say? I think $12,000 would be very generous.

Runs in my mind that the low-end Ram, the "Work Special" (plain wheels, painted trim, six cylinder) was around $8000.

Before the Ram, Dodges were notorious rustbuckets in road salt regions. After a couple of years, when I noticed they weren't rusting like Dodges, I was impressed. But it turns out they'd only delayed the rust development. They're still Dodges.

The 1998-2000 Frontier was a good looking truck. Especially the four cylinder. Like 27 MPG.

No doubt its an amazing engine. However, I can get a nice gas version of this truck for like 7k. A new cummins crate for 6k. Lets say I'd spend 4k to install. 30k is out of the ballpark on that truck. The seller is truly nuts.

It is Humboldt so they're definitely high. Low miles and good condition but its THREE DECADES OLD.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80803555


They are really good quality, well made vehicles that would cost at least 150k, IF they were at all possible to be made in todays challenging climate control environment, and pollution etc.

In todays market, you can't make vehicles that well anymore until you get into the semi-truck range of products.

If I had alot of money, I would be buying up older vehicles rite now, to collect a fleet of them. They will pay for themselves over the next few decades when they still continue to work and be serviceable, parts-availability considered though, Don't buy something that you can't get parts for, if you do, Make sure its really reliable or buy two of them.

You nailed it. New computer cars will be worthless in less than 10 years. I just bought an 03 Jetta TDI and I'm going through fixing little issues. Even this car is almost too new with too many gadgets to break. With the diesel it is my hope to get 1 million miles from this little car @ 48 MPG.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80803555


Watch out for early 2000 VWs and Audis. Lots of engineering went into them that will eventually break, so they tend to have alot of issues.

It isn't just the diesels, all over craigslist you see this sort of insanity with far older and worse condition and less desirable trucks.

And it isn't just Trucks, pretty much any old used consumer item on CL is virtually the same price as a brand new one. They don't understand the idea of depreciation on there.

He is definitely making premium dollar bro for the truck, but on his account its a cummings diesel motor with a little over a 100 miles. The cummings diesel is a 400k mile truck, i know my buddy has 2 of them from the 90's and they are still running strong while the body slowly shows age.
