owner took a true slap in the face

[1995psd]

today i went to a richie brothers auction in nashville and i saw a powerstroke and a cummins there
powerstroke- 06" crew cab, 4x4 dually cloth int. 6.0 sharp!!!
cummins- 05" crew cab dually 4x4
both under 100k
well the powerstroke roled on to the ramp and couldnt even get a 5 k. bid but it ended up selling for 14 k
and the same thing with the cummins but it brought 8 k

now that is a true slap in the face for the owner but who ever bought these trucks made a great buy
but of corse i was with my dad and he was the "bidder" and i couldnt convince him that the 6.0's dont lose thier engines after 200k. mi.

Are truck values are just dropping with the price of fuel right now.

Dang, thats a really good price on that Ford. That guy got a real good truck for the money.

i know but 8 k for a truck that brand new 3 yrs. ago that he probably paid close to 40k or more (idk wat a new dodge costs)

the used car manager at work laughed at me when i asked him how much mine was worth, and informed me that also they deduct for diesels instead of their old 5k add-on

Wow....Thats sad, you used to be guaranteed 3-5k dollars more just because of the diesel engines.....
