If you want to save some money just travel south a bit. Same problem here in Florida overpriced used vehicles. i went to Kentucky and got a 08 mega cab laramie with an after market nav/dvd/cd/phone/all kinda other **** for 36k with 50k miles. 1500.00 in dpf removal and i couldn't be happier. I shopped around for months found some good deals in mich and wis to but didn't want to travel that far. If your area is over priced 5 or 6 hundred miles can save ya thousands. Most dealerships will quote over the phone, and if you give them an honest representation of your vehicle they stick to it. Just don't let pride in your truck make you think it's worth more, it always hurts a lil.

From the way the prices sound up there, you should be able to find a good solid truck down here, fly down, drive it home and still have less money invested.
If you find something you're interested in, post the info up, and maybe somebody from the board can go look at it for you. Might save you a bunch of money that you could use for mods, tires and rims, etc.
