Default HOW DO YOU PUT A PRICE ON YOUR TRUCK

Hey guys, I am in need of some help. Looking to sell my truck since i have a kid on the way and need something with more room. But I am not sure how to place a value on the truck with all the aftermarket add-ons that I have put money and time into over the years. So give me some pointers as to what i need to do... PLEASE

My experience has been either remove the aftermarket stuff and sell separate or don't expect much if any extra over the value of a stock truck with them left on. It's pretty hard to find someone willing to pay extra for aftermarket stuff.

personally if truck has a lot of power adders i look to pay allot less just cause usually means it has been hammered on and is on down hill slide to scrap yard unless you are a diesel mech and can competently explain why you chose parts and reasoning behind it
