Thinking of selling...

Don't do it! You'll regret it!

4 wheels are safer than 2 by a long shot. Thats why I don't ride anymore. But I still long for the speed.

I wouldnt do it! From your post it doesnt sound like you 'have to' get rid of it so DONT.

However i said 6000+, it may be a longshot around your parts but around here they would go for big bucks in good condition with, etc.

bro ask yourself this, do you need the money,do you have a place to store it? if no and yes then dont, you mention you have kids, any boys?, i bet when they get old enough to drive, one of them will luv to have it, sounds like a hard decission but is it really? i sold my harley when i started modding my truck, well now i am thinking of buying another lol just cause of gas prices and how far i live from work, 68 miles one way (sux) wish i never sold the bike wasnt like i had to.. but i did.. now i have to listen to the wife say i told you so ...

Funny you should mention commute.... I drive 50 miles (each way) to/from work. It'd definitely save on gas to have a bike. I'm hesitant to sell right now b/c the hurricane season is knockin' on South La's door. Just this past weekend, it rained hard enough to flood the street with water. The C10 can barely wade through, but it'll make it. Wife's Armada rides a little taller than the C10. Having the pickup does help. A buddy of mine called and asked if I could haul a dining room set from the store to his home. Can't do that in an Armada.

May not sell.... but... that depends on the cash. There's a late 60's model RS that I see on the way home from work, and it's eggin' for me to stop and ask the owner what's the asking price!

bottom line let the cash do the talking hell with 5k even 7k i wouldnt go less than 8k, if it sells then it sells if not at lease you still have a kick ass nice truck.. i personally look at what i put into one even though you'll never get the sweat and long hours out of it, its the thought of what you did to get it to where its at!!! good luck on whatever you deside, hope you make the right one....


8k and NO less...

8k and NO less...

I like the way you think. Honestly, if someone wanted something bad enough they'd pay for it. Not that I would see that offer from every Joe Blow, but it sets a bar for the uncertainty to sell. My uncle told that since I wasn't really sure about selling, just say won't sell for less than $10K. I thought that was steep, but if some joker walks up with a cashier's check for $10K, I'd most likely be handing over the title! <--- not likely to see that much though.

Guess (for now) it looks like I'll be keeping the truck. It does serve a practical purpose, and is paid for. That's the biggest benefit that would outweigh gas consumption.

HEY 1 BADC10 heres one for ya, dunno if you read of any of my post awhile back i had a 84 C10 also fleetside, being restored by some great friends, tubbed out for racing and all, well wife and i decided to build our own home out in the country, so i decided to mention i wanted to sell, well the guys friend that has been doing the work on the truck offered me 5k just for the body, which was perfect but no interior, hell i still have a new dashboard for it and alot of other parts including a cowl hood, my point is he offered the money i took it not thinking he had it but i be damn he brought it to me lmfao!!! yeah i excepted, plus ended up selling the create motor which never left the create for 4k which is what i paid for it, he didnt buy the motor but he liked the work he done to the truck so he bought it, moral to the story is someone somewhere will want it for the right price...

keep it... whats 5 grand going to buy you these days... not a whole heck of a lot. how many people do you know with a c-10 as clean as yours? not many i guarantee it... i love the c-10s youll regret selling it.

[1BADC10]

skeet... i know what you're saying. agree 100&#37;.

wtfan... $5K could buy me a really nice 50mpg 2-wheel machine, but i know what you're saying as well. i'll hold onto it for a lil while longer. planning a trip to a friend in H-town to help me get the tune finalized. Truck runs strong as hell now. Wondering what it'd feel like afterwards.

[GoFastPadre]

I agree with the others. I have had various things along the way that I have let go and been sick afterwards. The key to it all is it is paid for and like was said above one of those little ones may want it to carry on where dad left off, just something to think about.
