Default Trade in value?

Planning on letting the truck go and picking up a Mustang again. I'm just curious on what you guys think I could get for my truck. 2005 XLT SuperCab 4x4 with 150k miles. Has some cosmetic issues, one major. And the spark plugs need to be changed. Mechanically it is pretty solid though. Just due for spark plugs as every once in a while it stutters like it did last time it needed plugs. This will be the third time its gotten new plugs. Has damage to the bed from getting hit by a buddy in his lifted F350, minor damage up front due to playing around, neither of which effected the frame. And it has a cracked windshield. I know it's beat up, and I still love driving it, but what would be a good start point $$$ to selling it?

Based off kbb.com that's what I was thinking of going with. Start at 8 and see what happens with an "or best offer" thrown in there. Unless I can find a 96-2000ish Mustang GT for sale at a used car dealer, and see if they'd take this and give me enough for that.

And yes, front lower driver side bumper has a small dent and is pushed in a little. Was planning on fixing it all and keeping it, but the bug to get another Mustang bit me hard enough that I just don't want to anymore.

Bugs bite, but the sting wears off. Lol

Can get a clean Mustang with that. That'd be awesome.

I think what you need to do is ask yourself what you'd pay for this truck if you were looking at it as a buyer. As we all know, our personal F150's are always top dollar in value!

I'll be the Debbie Downer here; if you came across a 2005 F150 that has bed damage, a slightly sagging front corner bumper,and 150K on a 5.4 that needs plugs, what would you pay for it?
