What did you trade-in to get your truck...


Recommended Posts

I traded in my 2012 Ford Mustang GT500 w/Recaro Seats and SVTPP. Bought it in May of 2014 with 10,400 miles and sold it in November 2014 with 17,600 miles.

i would have trouble getting rid of that..

I regret trading it from time to time but it was a smart choice. I trade for two reasons, first the previous owner didn't know how to drive and the transmission was having problems. It was still under warranty but I didn't want to deal with it down the road once I added more power. Second, my daily driver was falling apart so I wanted a new truck. But I'm only 25 so I'll get another GT500 soon. Hopefully I'll be able to afford a new down the road. The shear power of that car was amazing. I remember one time I was going 162mph up hill in 5th gear and it was still pulling. Flat ground I would of hit around 190mph based on videos and posts I've read on various GT500 forums.

they are awesome cars.. the newest gen GT500 is amazing too.. thats understandable about the trans. I have the itch for a fast car... its a tradeoff for me, if i have a truck i want a fast car, if i have a fast car i want a truck. I need both! hopefully ill have a S4 this time next year!

2009 GMC Sierra 4.8L 4x4 Nevada Edition. Was actually a great truck just thought it was time to move into a higher trim level.

^^^That's retarded fast

525rwhp/518rwtq with a couple minor bolt ons (intake, axel back exhaust, 2.8" pulley instead of stock 3" and tune). The tune and 3.73 gears helped.

I love the 2013-2014 GT500's. Only reason I didn't that year is because of the price, they are still about $50k and thats a great deal on a low mileage used one. Where as my 2012 loaded out I picked up for $38k out the door. Good luck on the S4 those are sweet cars just expensive to modify and tune.

I don't trust myself with a fast car or any car. I used to get into a lot of trouble in a truck so I don't think I want to know what stupid stuff I would have done in a V8 Camaro. I'm a lot better now since getting my CDL back in '05 but I still didn't trust myself then and I still don't think I can trust myself now. Plus I would rather have a classic muscle car anyways.

Traded my 2007 Avalanche LTZ for my high country. What a night and Day difference and I kept my Avalanche Immaculate. Nice listing on the Stang ...Crafferty... Maybe next time youll get a Camaro!

Noted earlier that I traded my 05 Sierra, I also sold my 97 WS6 with 18k in Oct to free things up for the new truck, here they both are in the driveway, now if winter would just end so I can get it cleaned up,

2005 Trailblazer. With heated seats that worked much better than my 2014 Silverado.

Like a few others I didn't trade anything in. Dealer insisted on pricing my used '05 highlander to get me a price. Agreed just for the entertainment and chuckled under my breath. He came back with a offer that didn't surprise me. Had to reminded him I didn't need to sell it to close the deal on the new '14. Sold my used one private party a few weeks later for $4k more then the dealer offered. :D
