Thanks for pointing out my typo, Merriam Webster.
You have jokes too!?!? What time is your set at the Improv?

FWIW, it also has the tow package.

All 4.5l had tow package. Just kidding, that's easily a $700 truck around where I live. I am sure if you put it on CL you could get that much.

Good idea but that is like giving them a pair of shoes with holes in them.

List it for $700-$800 on CR and see what happens. I would expect you can get $500 for it.

I'll give you a case of beer, and a broken cigarette for it. RIGHT MEOW

The charity will sell it at an auction, not use it.
Its really not worth it because the tax write off isn't as good as getting cash for it.

Throw in a 8 ball of coke and 2 strippers and we have a deal.

I'd say F it and do the tax write off if that'll work out to $400 or so benefit to you. Otherwise, these are my rules/opinions:

Runs and drives with AC - $2k
Runs and drives without AC -$1k+

People always need trucks, it's easily worth $700 at a bare minimum. I'd even consider buying it at that price just to fart around with and half-destroy until it wasn't able to be driven anymore, then get $500 from a salvage yard. Cheap fun IMO.

if you got a $400 tax write off and were making the type of money that put you in the highest tax bracket (450k+), you'd make/save $156 on your taxes... if your middle income it's only $60.

I heard a "financial adviser" tell a guy not to pay off his house because he would lose the tax write off before (which is only on the interest he pays)... I just don't get this "do it for the write off" I will gladly trade anyone on here $30 for every $100 they give me and unless they make over 223k a year, I'm giving them a better deal than any write-off they are getting giving away money.

^that's why I said "$400 or so benefit to you" and not a $400 write-off. For this case, it makes sense to me. Selling crap on CL is a PITA. Plus you get your "donation"/feel good about yourself deed out of the way.

400k is top tax bracket IIRC, and they get raped at 39.5%. My dad is in it and wanted to write off a $15k boat, but because it depends on what they auction/sell it for, and there's nothing keeping them from selling for squat, it made no sense to do. He could've only gotten like $3k or something stupid-low of benefit for it.

I'm all for charity... but give it because you want you like you said the "donation/feel good"... doing it just for a write off is completely stupid
