I'd bet there's a half dozen old ones sitting on the bench. I'd almost go with a first year etec instead of that Poo mil. Almost. He also proceeded to tell me that his sled is valued at 6000 and mine is worth 3500...I guess what I really should do is just tell him to try and sell his for 6 and buy one like mine for 3500...have at it.

Oh I love those kinda guys that "expain" to you what your sled is worth and why it is worth that. Even if you agreed with them...they'd come out and beat your agreed upon price up again. Craigslist fuck-wads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My tolerance is low for assholes anyway so probably worked out for the best. Yeah...I just sold my last one to a buddy that parts them out. Not worth the hassle. But it had 5k on it. Mine has less than 1000! The literal "sweet spot" for used sled. Everybody wants/needs to finance now. An easy $300 a month for 48 is better than the 7-10k for a low mileage "used" one I guess. Not to me though. ...and people can't figure out why sleds are approaching $20k now. Hey...all "easy monthly payments"! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey...all "easy monthly payments"! It's the same reason why truck prices are so high. These dumb asses buy on the payment not the OTD price.

My last sled and truck I bought had the seller ponying up big $$$$ to the bank to get the titles free and clear. In fact...the dude on the sled paid the bank in front of me over half of the cash I gave him....then they asked me if I wanted to take out a loan for it. I seriously laughed.
