It sucks, but its reality. Shop around, I bet you will find someone to offer you more, but I will be real surprised if its going to be $3k or $4k more, probably $1k or $1.5.
15 to 15500 would be fair. I just thought that 14k was low that's all. I know how it works and I don't expect kbb. I just want a fair value..

Just let them stick with that number and start haggling the price of the new vehicle....if u stay stern with them they will eventually hit thier bottom dollar on the price they can sale the new one for and go back to ur trade and start offering u more money on that end....just let them know I are serious and squeeze every dime out of them that u can

I paid $14,700 for my '06 XLT Supercab 4x4 in 2/09. Id hate to see what the previous owner got for a trade in.
