I don't have an answer for your question, but I have a question for you. What size throttle body are you running and how much of a difference did you notice?

Ok I just hopped on Kelly Blue Book and did the private party value for your truck. I included all the options you have listed and assumed some from my knowledge of this truck. If it is in excellent condition- which it looks like it is KBB said to ask 19,165. Of course they don't know you're actual truck and this is just a ball park estimate. However due to your extensive modding this may decrease your value. The only time the value would really increase would be if the buyer is knowledgeable and appreciates your taste in mods. Personally I would ask 20,500 for it and be ready to deal a little. Used trucks these days are holding their value extremely well due to the fact no one is shelling out 40k to buy a new one. Good luck and I hope this helps. You can check Autotrader for similar models and similar miles to see what folks are asking. You may also want to rerun the KBB value since you know the extent of your options.

I hate to admit it, but your mods are worth nothing for your resale, unless you find someone that really wants them. Even as an enthusiast myself I'd prefer it be stock and unmolested.

I agree with Dern. Look at the kbb value and hope you can get that. Unless you find someone who is looking for a slightly modded truck, all your add-ons are worth nothing. If it was lifted or rolling some expensive wheels, then you might be able to include that. but good luck

Thanks that does help, and yeah i know that mods mean nothing really unless the buyer wants them on there. Some of them are removable. But i got the truck for graduation (i'm 18) and my parents knew the owners so they trusted the condition it was in and all that, plus it only had 29k miles on it. There's just some things about it i'd change. I'd like the floor shifter, sliding rear window, the fact that its 2" lower than a 4wd,and the actual 4WD!!!!!! My problem is, being 18 i really dont have another vehicle to drive around until i bought a new truck if i got mine sold, and well its still in their name and all that.

Well good luck to you. I bought my truck from an old man that absolutely babied his truck. That's what people look for in a seller. But your truck looks very nice and clean so you shouldn't have to much trouble moving it, even with the mods. The mods do make the truck unique and some people will like that.

So you're going to buy a 4x4 lariat with the center consle? That's a pretty big hit on your wallet to have a truck for less than a year and then buy another one...that's why I got exactly what I wanted from the beginning cause in my opinion it aint a truck if its 2wd

FWIW, I paid 10k for my 05 Lariat 4x4 center console center shift. It has 150k miles on it though, but doesn't show them.
