^Hard to believe so many pay msrp at a local dealer.
I haven't shopped there yet but I know that places like Dillon, Dave Smith and that place in Indy are the real deal price wise.
Plus I think most people selling almost new big expensive trucks are the paid msrp, financed to the hilt,no down payment, cantaffordit, thousands in bling before the first oil change, 5k in tax rolled into the loan and still owe msrp or more after a year.
Then they think they're giving away their used truck at $49999 and looking for someone else to finance their bad decision.
I think you're exactly right.
Saying that, "good" used diesel trucks in good condition sell for a premium around here. Before I bought my truck I had my sights on a 2007 Ram 3500 DRW 4x4 Laramie, 5.9L, G56 with 60k miles. It was in great shape with a ton of extras and the dealer would not drop below $39,500 Cdn. I just couldn`t see spending that much on a truck of that age so I passed, but it sold a week later!
Shouldn't there be a lot of newer used rigs for sale in western Canada with the oil patch so slow now? I've been looking but don't see a lot and what's out there is still comparable in USD even with the exchange.
What's the big websites for private party sales? Craigslist in the Alberta cities doesn't have squat and kiiji seems like mostly dealer, not a lot of private party.
