Well, these trucks are getting old now, just like the muscle cars did. And just like furniture or any other type of desirable antique, when they get old and there is an attraction for them, the prices naturally go up. You won't get a spotless anything for $10k anymore, and you certainly can't build a spotless car for less either. Some are lucky enough to get in while it was cheap, while others now are on the outside looking in. But on the same token, I'm not into the 80's trucks that much, I don't care for computer controlled stuff, so yeah, they aren't worth as much to me. That doesn't mean they won't fetch good money though. They are nice trucks and the last of the square body style. I think he did fine on his purchase. |

Re: Thoughts on value
The value of something is only what someone is willing to pay for it.

Re: Thoughts on value
Well said capone
Im not old (29) maybe im just cheap. I was just stating my opinion on what i think of the value on squares. That said a new truck shouldn't cost $50k either I like the saying "if you are happy with the price it's just right"

Re: Thoughts on value
This is Texas and trucks are king so the prices reflect that as well.

Re: Thoughts on value
I did notice while hunting for a duramax that Texas was the place to look. Texas had a larger selection and I finally found the one I wanted over there.

Re: Thoughts on value
I stumbled upon mine. Good squarebody trucks here are impossible to find. If you are into a truck that has every mossy oak item on it, every wire spliced for extra lights or every fender cut so they can "flex" it on their neighbors Kia, then this is the place to find one.

Re: Thoughts on value
I am hoping to get to pick the truck up tomorrow. Here is one that is very close to the one I am buying so I think I have done pretty good.
