What do you guys think my truck would be worth if I decided to sell it?? There is a 50/50 chance that I might be moving overseas, and shipping on the truck would be about $2000 and I will probally run into a lot of problems getting it thru customs with it modified the way it is. If I do move overseas then it will be up in the air if I bring the truck with me or not. So what do you guys think my truck would be worth if I was to sell it? I know I will probally take a pretty big loss so I will most likely bring it with me if I move, but want to try and get an idea of what it would be worth.

Well hopefully you won't have to sell it. Selling a modified vehicle is always hard. You have a very small potential market of people that will actually buy modified vehicles. As for a fair price, I would say you might get fair market value of the truck in stock trim, and then add maybe .40-.50 cents on the dollar of all your mods. It svcks, but that's about all you will probley get.
I looked on NADA and KBB for you, but the prices aren't up for 2006s. Plus we all know those are a little off. So what I think is reasonable is to ask the price you paid for the truck. If it was stock, I'd knock off about $4000, but since you have at least $8000+ in modifications I think you should get half back. Personally if I saw a truck with low mileage and all the goodies you have, I'd take it over a brand new one any day.
If it's Europe that lift won't make it in most garages and for than matter the truck is as wide as most city streets!!!
Just an idea...You could probably sell it over there for more than here to some rich kid or Horsepower guy. The dollar is cheap compared to Euro. So you'd likely catch full US $ price.

Too many mods to list PM me I'll tell ya.
where in europe are you going? i have been to germany twice, i dont think that you need to sell your truck you just have to pull the lift off. the only reason you have to do that is because the hight on the boat is limited. i had a 87 ramcharger with a 4" llift and it was just under the limit. if you dont want to remove the lift, you can pay to have it shipped over. it used to cost about $2000.00. it might be higher due to inflation. hope this helped. if you have anymore questions pm me.
It is usually best to pull the parts and sell them. Aftermarket parts on the truck are usually worth ZERO- or even negative !!
Vyrus and others are right that your vehicle might be a special case because of the SC etc.If I were you I would try to have it both ways:
1)Give it a try selling it as is for whatever you paid for it(not the MSRP-no one will pay that-and forget the TTL)-maybe Ebay just to get as wide a market as possible.This will give you an idea, if there is someone out there looking for "your' truck-Supercharged!
2)Strip all the parts off and return it to stock.I don't know that I would make any mention of the SC having been installed( could impact warranty etc).
The SC was about $5000-should be able to get $2500-$3000 for it.
Exhaust-should be worth 60%.
Those wheels/tires must have cost $1500 maybe-get at least 50% minus shipping.
The HIDS are worth $100 or so.
You should be able to sell the take offs for ~$4000.This means you will have a much wider market for your truck-many,many buyers will immediately pass on a lifted-power modded truck with huge MPG robbing tires, but there are folks looking to buy just those add ons who will go for some lightly used parts at a decent discount(say 60-70% of new minus shipping).Luck,Charlie
Thanks guys. If I were to move it would actually be over to the Middle East (Kuwait) for some job oppurtunities, not military. I can bring it over there, but cost of shipping is around $2000, and they are pretty strict about what can come in (lift, supercharger, exhaust) so I am sure I would have some trouble over there, but in the long run I will be able to get it thru customs, but might have to take some things off. I was just trying to see what you guys thought I would be able to get if I decided to sell it with the aftermarket stuff on it. Just trying to way my options out and am thinking if I could end up not taking a huge loss it might be in my best interest to sell it, but if not if I go I will bring it with me.
Do you guys think I have a shot of getting about $36,000??
