If you are going to trade, strip the EDGE...out of the truck. For dealer trade, I would think they could give you $28-30K. Private party value might be $32,000, IMO. I paid $32,000 for mine w/ Edge, Intake, Exhaust, Alloy wheels/BFG's...it had 7,000miles and I bought it in Sept.

I traided my 4.5 club cab, short bed 2500 for 28.500... Had to fight like hell to get it from the dealer... Two I walked out on :)

It had 22,000 miles on it and was stock. Bought a new 05 3500 LT Dually for 35.600.

I got $24,000 from a dealer for my '03 duramax with all the extras... like exhaust.. intake... etc... with 37,500 miles on it--- in a trade in.... these trucks used are tough to come by in some areas of the country

Are you trading just to get the LBZ?

Just curious.

Im sure everyone is aware of this- but Ill say it anyway. Your Exhaust, intake, tuners, tires DONT MEAN DI(K to a dealer. They wont give you a penny in extra trade in. To the black book they use to compute the value does not take into account anything other than the stock vehicle. It just means they have to eat the warranty if they sell the truck with no kitty under warranty.

if you have the vin # I can give you a really good number what its worth and what the dealer will give you, also needed is your location. Need to know the body config. and the trim level. All your add ons are nice but when trading it in don't expect much. I had my own dealership and still have the tools to book it out or let you know what its worth in your area...
