Need advice on selling toad
I have just started the process of selling my 8-year old MH. I have a daily driver that I have also been using as a toad - I completely love this vehicle, but I'm wondering if I should sell it now also to take advantage of all the mods that I have done to it to make it towable (kit to use OEM lights, supplemental and emergency brakes, and tow brackets permanently attached to an aluminum front bumper).
I don't mind having any of these mods, but they would all now be pointless to me. To a buyer with a MH, it would give them a toad that would be plug & play with no further work required by them to their unit.
Basically, this is where I am at this point. I love this vehicle and would be happy driving it for several more years. But, I am wondering if these mods would be considered desirable to others, making more sense to sell it now at a premium over the blue book price and then roll that money into buying a replacement daily driver.
My questions are:
1) What are others experiences with selling a toad with mods like this?
2) In your opinion, could I get more than the blue book prices for this because of the mods? Or would I possibly get less than the blue book price because the population desiring toads is small and the population not requiring toads would view rolling miles and/or mods as a negative?
3) If the consensus is that I could get above the blue book price, any suggestions for the best method for selling something like this? I traded-in my last toad on this vehicle, so I've never gone through the process of selling a toad before.
(Apologies to anyone reading this who also read my earlier post - my earlier post was deleted, and speculation is that was because it contained details that made someone think it was a sales ad. I only saw the first few responses to the other post, so I would appreciate anyone taking the time to respond here again!)
