Buy a new one at that price


LOL....You mean buy a new Chevy 3500 DRW for $35K? You obviously have not priced new trucks in a while. I wonder if you could even get a 2012 work truck with manual windows for that price. I have a 2008 Chevy 3500 DRW LTZ and the MSRP was $53,600. That same truck today has an MSRP of $63,000.

To the OP: the price would depend on the model, condition, and mileage. Around my part of CA, an LTZ package with 30K miles or less are being listed between $42-44K on a dealers lot. Private party is of course less.


Actually I just bought a '12 LTZ and got 11k before I put any money down. So yeah I know what I'm talking about and you can get one for 35k.


Gas? Cause a diesel will run 53,000 before you add extras.

To the OP, it depends on miles and condition. TO retento and to gmcsmoke, I say BS, there is no way you bought a '12 fully loaded diesel 4x4 DRW for 35k. You may have got 11k off sticker, but steve76eb is right, sticker is over 60 grand. Heck, I paid more then 35k for my 2500HD diesel in 2005.

Diesel


Apparently most have no clue when it comes to truck buying and just like to ***** about the high prices and how they can't afford a new one; like GM only makes an LTZ's with every option.

I did a whole lot of shopping and finally ended up buying a USED (40K) HD2500 crew 4X4 with PW/DL/Steering/Brakes/tilt/cruise/tinted with AC, rubber floor covering, AM/FM radio and single disc for $35,200. Never found ANYTHING NEW for anything near that price. You would have to have held a gun to his head to buy it for that. JMHO. I thought I was wrong once, but found out, I was actually just mistaken
