If you do Free New Car Price Quotes, Used Cars, and Auto Reviews you can purchase a vehicle ANY time at the lowest price and you don't have to deal with salesman.

Your truck looks great, You have it detailed to the 9s.The repaint shouldnt hurt the value of the truck, if and I mean if the paint is top notch.

i say see what carmax offers you just to know the bottom. i know you can sell t private for much more. is it paid off??? your credit would be much better if you put 500 a month in your savings account for a year ( simulate that new car payment) oh and if your credit doesnt get better you still have 6000 grand to down pay on something

I don't see a problem asking $16,000 and go from there. NADA is slightly more than that. A repaint (if done properly) won't hurt the value of it. Repaints only hurt values on high end or collector vehicles (if done properly). On a side note, it's strange how the shop couldn't do a proper color match/blend, but did a "perfect" paint job. That doesn't make alot of sense?

The mettalic kept being hard to blend. It was PPG paint (he has a 1yr contract with it) and it's hard to spray. So he resprayed the whole thing so all the flake would blend right.

I was going to take it to the dealer next week just to *see* what the'd give me on a trade.
