Is anyone here in the automotive or truck sales business?

I have heard pretty much the same thing 15-18.000, which I thought was insane.
Depending on how my detail job ends up looking, I will most likely start at $17.000 being in CA and all. People have the money, and I'll gladly take as low as $10 and still feel like I won.

Thank you.

Yeah, that makes sense. California definitely pushes the price a bit higher since buyers tend to have more disposable income. Starting at $17,000 sounds reasonable, especially if your Silverado is in good shape after your detailing job. It could really make it stand out. I like your mindset too; even if it sells for $10,000, you are still coming out ahead considering the condition and mileage. Sometimes it is just about finding the right buyer who appreciates what you are offering.

If so, I could use a little help please.
I'm trying to find out what my old truck is worth, or a private sales price.
In the past, I'd use Kelly Blue Book, but now days they want too much personal info. and I'm not interested in giving them that info.

I'm wondering how much my fully loaded except for sunroof,
2006 2500HD Silverado 4x4, crew cab, it has the 6.0 gas engine in it and has, 166000 miles on it.

It's been in two minor fender benders, which were repaired professionally.
The truck is in great shape, except the driver's seat leather covering is coming apart a little at a seam.
Everything works great except the driver side heated seat, which went out yrs ago.
It has after market wheels with 275/ 16 or 17" Bridgestone Dualer's mud and snow tires on it.

It's always passed CA smog with no problems.

What should I ask for this truck?

Thanks a bunch.

I used to be in this business, and I should tell you nobody in the forum will be able to do this job for you. Or that will simp,y become uninformative. If you want to save time, just google for some car sales sites and check out the similar models. Second option - try to upload your truck and see what they suggest. Many platforms use AI, so that should be easy.
