2011 F550 - What's it worth
My father has a 2011 F550 4x4 crew cab RV hauler by Classy Chassis's. The truck is completely decked out with an aluminum RV bed, air ride, air hitch, etc. and has 40k miles. He's toying with the id...

You can get a new Class 5 with upfits for under $60k out the door, so $50k might be a little high. A top of the line fully optioned new one is about $80K OTD.
I had to look up what class 5 trucks were, but it appears they have 16k-19.5K GVWR's.....the GVWR of an F550 is 19.5k. The GCWR is over 30k I think.
I haven't shopped for an F550, but I know a new loaded F350 SRW is near $70k.....that does not include a 5th wheel hitch. I've got to think the F450's and F550's are more....and that's before upfitting with a custom built RV bed and extras such as electric steps, air horns, etc.
All that said, you are completely right about it being a 5 year old vehicle. I know pickups tend to hold their values pretty darn well....especially diesel 4x4's. Unfortunately, that doesn't help me much since this beast isn't exactly a pickup truck.....it's going to have a much smaller market.
