I would say that $17K is high. Giving the benefit of the doubt that there is nothing wrong with the car mechanically or cosmetically (inside and out), book resale (private individual to private individual) value is only $15k
$13,499.99. Based on condtion and miles, if there were more miles i would say less. Were talking private party sale here, everyone knows dealers and autotraders tack on $2-3k to the price to make money and to let you think you talked them down.
I worked at Ford for a year in sales and still see alot of the guys around , after hearing about sales all the time i would say with the way everything is right now , I would expect anywhere from 15k - 16k to the right buyer . But if that doesnt happen im sure it would move pretty quick at 14,500
Yeah I'm starting to believe I can probably get $14,500+ for sure, but I think I'll let it sit for awhile and see if I get any takers. After all, I bought the Run-till-it-sells ad from autotrader. I have plenty of time!
