What do you guys think I could sell my truck for? - Infamous Nissan

I've got a 1997 Pickup 4x4 with the 4 cyl and a 5 speed. It's got 117,000 miles and the body is straight but there are dings and other cosmetic imperfections on literally everything. Mechanically though nothing is wrong and the truck runs great. Just out of curiosity what do you guys think I could get for it if sold it?

I would check your local listings to see what price range they are going for.. then base your price off of that, just a thought

Great looking D21!

I see you are in NorCal. I’m in SoCal. Like YEEPEE stated, check local listings for a range of prices of your make, model and options.

IF you decide to sell it. You should have a detail business give it a good once over inside & out to boost the price of the vehicle.

That truck is an easy 3k here all day long.

I was going to say 3 to 4 grand.

You're in California (right down the road from me), so you're probably well above the posters' suggestions for elsewhere in CA. I saw one on Craigslist the was beat listed for $4500.

Clean it up real good and start at 6K. There aren't many with low mileage out there. Make sure you detail it out good under the hood as well.
It's been 24 years since the last one rolled off the assembly line in Tennessee. There will be buyers, and they might be willing to pay more than it is actually worth.

Reason being...it's been 24 years since the last one rolled off the assembly line in Tennessee.
