1994 GMC Sierra half ton, 130k miles, extended cab, 5.0 liter gas, clean interior, recent brakes (entire system including brake lines) new tires, recent exhaust, new water pump. Matching hard tonneau, Ready to go.
I hate to let it go, as it is a wonderful reliable truck. But I think maybe I should sell it. I wonder what it is worth.

Is it worth a couple grand? Maybe 2500?

Standard cab, 8' bed, new brakes and lines, and new tires.
Ebayed it and saw $3850

$1200-1400 at the auction. Are you trying to sell it or are you just wondering?
How old are the shocks?

950.63 to1019.87 depending on how new the shocks are.

Shocks are fine. I always maintained it like I was keeping it.
I think that I may keep it for when Bouy comes to town so he feels comfortable driving something that he recognizes. :D

I would feel comfortable turning the key and taking a cross country trip.

Door is open my friend.
It'd be alot cheaper to run the 5.0l across country than the 1-ton...
I know how expensive it was to move the 3/4 with the boat in tow...

Imagine how cheap it would be to run the Malibu.
33 mpg highway at 65 mph.
BTW... I have this 2007 Malibu. It is really nice. Power everything and XM, sunroof, 3.5 liter V6. I wonder how much that it is worth? :)

Sorry, don't mean to be cracking jokes on your first post (Eric, welcome to Serious, by the way), but this thread was a hi-jack from the very first post.:rolleyes:
Once you hang a round for a little while, you get to know the people pretty well.
Watch out for that Phragle guy...:seeya:

I got a few inquiries about the truck. I appreciate that.
But seeing what it's worth (on paper) makes me think that I'll keep it as a back up for my daily driver and for a spare vehicle when people visit.
Besides, it sort of matches its big brother :D I guess the thing that would make me sell it would be running out of space when the boat comes home from winter storage.

On a serious note, what do the shock absorber's age/condition, have to do with such a large valuation difference of a truck?

phragle

because if the front shocks are wasted, a few good blips of the throttle it will start bouncing and eventually pull the front wheels off the ground. Any truck that can pull wheelies is one bad mofo and worth twice as much.....

Bad shocks have a ripple effect on other components, like brakes, tires and the rest of the suspension. When the shocks have been let go, often these other related areas need to be addressed as well. And that can add up when we are talking tires, brakes, etc.

(I sold the truck back in May to a good friend, just a general FYI.)
