07 with 5k miles!

[cc rider]

What do you guys think about this? Im not saying I want to buy it. Just saw it and thought wow! that is clean. Why such low mileage though? I called and they said an old man owned it and traded it in for something else so he barely drove it. The mileage is sure nice . but 7 years old

For about $4k more - you can buy one that is seven years newer, and 5k less miles.

When they drop their price to something reasonable, it'll sell. Until then...

You could get a new truck for that. Look up the blue book value for it then take that too them. Its not worth much more at all no matter the condition.

I will say this. If the mileage is correct (which I highly doubt), the price would be in the 28 to 30k range. But like I say the mileage is suspect. I saw on the news where some used car dealers are rolling back the odometer through the computer. Get a car fax and a vin check BEFLRE you decide to get this truck. They will tell the true mileage of it.

They offer right on the ad the complete Carfax report.
This is a Laramie 1500, that's a hell of a nice truck!

Heated leather, adjustable pedals you name it. Even has the rare center console.
The unfortunate part is that some punk kid will wind up with it, and wrap it around a tree after horse beating the **** out of it.

Ok looking over the carfax it looks like it may have been a Company vehicle that was given to one of the owners that hardly used it. I can safely say that it should be a killer deal. DO get it checked over real well though. CarFax can only rely upon what is reported to them.

Yeah. youre not going to get a Laramie trim for a few thousand more new. Not looking at getting it. but I didn't know they could do that with the odometers (the computer thing)!!? It def

Problem is that it is still an 07. You are paying a premium, obviously, for the low clock. Once you buy it and run up some miles on it the depreciation will hit fast. It's a good deal at that price, but not spectacular. I would try really hard to buy it for $20K or less.
