  • What is it worth

    Seriously thinking it is time to sell my truck.

    2003 s-10 ~175k miles 80% of which have been highway. Mobil 1 synthetic every and wix filters change since I got it at 42k miles. New front brakes (pads, rotors, bearings). Head was replaced 2 years ago thanks to some bad information, it turned out to be a bad injector. New fuel pump and sending unit last spring. New shocks front and rear (fronts need installed). I get 25mpg when I drive all highway 22 mixed. Dual electric fans and drop in k&n air filter

    Issues:

    Needs A/C compressor (~$350 for compressor and charge)
    There is an oil leak
    SES light (lean bank 1) more than likely O2 sensor which I have

    What is a realistic number to expect? I am thinking about writing $3750 on the back window and seeing what happens.

    I am driving 45 min both ways to work. Looking to either find a fuel saver or buy my girlfriends g35 (roughly the same mpg) for something nicer to get around in and easier on my back. Not looking for a bunch of people to rip this apart. I am looking for some honest input from some of the guys who are in the buying/selling of the industry and can give some quality input.

    I work around and live in a high hispanic area and they love these little trucks....

      It wasn't a transmission issue. It turned out to be the plate on the back of the head that GM decided to use when they removed the EGR from these trucks instes of retooling the head. The gasket for that plate went bad and I had to replace it. As for the transmission it seems fine. There is some clutxh chatter but it has done that the entire time I have hs it

        This is several years old but it pretty much looks the same

            Me too. But start high and settle low. Everyone wants to feel like they got a deal. Last time I checked excellent KBB on my truck with no A/C is about $3700.

              KBB is always on the high side. Try Edmunds and if the price is the same, then ok.

                    That is pretty much what I am expecting/hoping to settle at.

                    I love my girlfriends G35 though she still owes $11k so I would have a car payment again. It has been almost 3 years since I have had a payment. That has been the hardest part of talking myself in to selling it

                      Why is she selling it? It sounds like your truck is dependable and just needs a little TLC. Much better than a car payment.

                        What is absolutely going to kill you is the lack of A/C and the SES light. Fix those and your $3750 is about right if not a touch high. The way it sits, you will be lucky to get $2500 for it.

                          She gets new car fever. She wants a SUV. She only drives a couple miles to work.

                          I have thought about that. I have the O2 sensor which should fix the SES light. I can have the A/C fixed for ~$350. Though if I go through the trouble I will more than likely keep it!

                              I go back and forth. There are times, more frequently since back surgery, that I wish I had something with a better ride
