I was planning to move on anyway, but I got an offer online from AutoTrader and it was almost unbelievable what they shoved across the desk at me.

I bought it in January 2021 for $43720, plus taxes, loved it for about 19000 miles and sold it yesterday for $43625, a $95 difference over about 26 months. I got a couple other online offers that were nowhere near that, and I thought the days of crazy prices were long gone, and I had missed the boat.

I'm really glad I kept it in nice shape, and the guidance from @AzScorpion on 303 and foam cannons may have had an impact?

I'll post up pics of my next truck when I get it this weekend, in the meantime here's one last shot of Ferdinand the Fantastic Ford.

Wow Jim, that’s amazing! Increfible offer - nice!
Yeah it was very aggressive, almost like when St. Elon overbid for Twitter, but I didn't mind lol. Now I'll have a nice little fund to start the mods on the new one???

Great deal, you got paid to drive it ? So… what’s its replacement? Curious minds want to know ?
My 86 year old dad has a 2011 Sierra 4WD 5.3. it's like a SCAB, I don't know what it's called in that truck lol, with about 30000 miles on it. He doesn't use it much and wanted me to have it. I'm a lucky fella sometimes?

I ran mine through can max today
$31000.00 for a 21 tremor with 30k on it. I did it online and they didn’t have an option for the tremor package. Maybe that would drive the price up some?

That is a terrible price for a tremor with 30k imo. But that's just off my little knowledge with pricing these days, but seems awfully low.

You were definitely puckering the butt waiting for the Nissan Frontier response. I know it :crackup:

On my trade to the Jeep Gladiator Sport S, The Jeep was highly discounted with a $4000 rebate and about $2000 off on dealer discounts too. My 2022 Tremor with 8K miles (approximately) I was allowed a trade in value of about $39,750 and I thought that was a fair deal. I mentioned the above discounts on the Gladiator to show that the price for the Ranger Tremor trade in was just not an inflated price. Check KBB Tony and see what the trade in value is on your 21 Tremor. Should be more than the $31K I bet that you were offered.
