Default What to do?

I have a 2008 F-150 XLT with 37,000 miles, and I drove by the dealership that I bought it from the other day and they have a 2006 F-150 Harley Davidson with 58,000 miles for $22,000. I test drove it and want to trade straight up. Do do you guys think I should do? Trade or keep my current truck.

That would be a hard decision but I'd have to go with the Harley.
Even with the mileage difference it will hold its value better.
Plus the fact that they are so sweet !

That is pretty sweet, what's the value on your truck? Would you lose out by doing a straight trade?

I might be wrong, but I don't think the Harley truck has a low range in 4WD.

That may not matter to you, in which case, not a bad deal, but if you use the truck for work at all, or you have the need for 4LOW sometimes, I'd reconsider.

I thought the Harley edition were only awd?

Anyhow, I would take the HD hands down. But I doubt the dealer would ever trade straight up. It might involve you bringing in money.

HD, your going from a basic stock to something much nicer. hold its value much more than an xlt. like everybody else said, look at the two and there is no question of the nicer one.
"Cheese pizza vs. the works...... I would go with the works"--- couldnt explain it better

come to find out the dealership was being a tease, I went there today and sure enough they wanted me to put $2,000 down. I told them to shove it and ill keep mine LOL. Thanks guys for the input, I wanted that Harley edition so so bad, also when I took it on a final test drive I noticed a jerking when I stopped and took off, dont know what it was, but not my problem :P
