I'm looking at some Sierra 2500 HD work trucks today, 2010 and 2012. They are in decent condition but with 140,000 miles and 200,000 miles. 6.0 motor, automatic. I haven't found any comparable trucks in my area to price them against, and the person is expecting me to make an offer. I understand the 6.0 motor is good, I need a second gas motor to tow with in the winter. 

 

Could anyone that watches the market give me some idea on where to start with a price for these?

The easy thing to do would be to check what KBB and other sites give for a ball park value. Then just search within 500-1000 miles for similar year trucks with mileage.

 

Something like that around here with a clean title and no real rust or body damage would get $14,000-18,000 pretty easy. The higher the trim the package the more it usually goes for.

I haven't found KBB to be very accurate in the last year. KBB is telling me $11,500 to $15k for the 140k mile truck. I'm guessing 17-18k is closer to the real number. It is a low trim package, but in my country most people are looking for work trucks like this one, they are in short supply.

For anyone curious, I spent 14,500 on the 140k mile work truck with higher end grill guard, ball, and pretty fresh tires. I'm happy with my purchase.

    • This is a really late reply but I just found this thread. They won't sell the hinges. I've gone 7 rounds with them. Their solution is to buy a new cover. I'm about to buy a new cover and it won't be a Bakflip. It also won't be from realtruck.com. 
    • Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver. 
    • Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....  
    • 4 low is really nice on steep boat ramps. 
    • Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.
