Whats it worth out in alberta ?

Was thinking of heading out for a trip to visit my brother in alberta and was thinking of taking my truck out and selling it.

I was told that used trucks out there have a high resale value.

My truck is a 2001 SLT quad cab with 300 000 km on it. excellent shape as its more of a grocery getter than a severe work truck.

We should take my dads ford PSD out and sell it.. Its a 01 XLT crew cab with about the same miles.

Any thoughts would helpful...

I dont mean to rain on your parade but out here I dont think there is a huge market for trucks with 300+ kms. Most of the newer trucks I see have under 150k. With that kind of milage it will probably be worth pretty much the same in Ontario.

I watch the truck trader every week and have only seen a few with that many miles. Usually high milers dont sell right away (unless the price is right).

Folks out west here tend to shy away from Eastern vehicles due to the heavy salt used on the roads there.

Ok guys, thanks for the heads up!

I will just hang on to it if thats the case and put a few hundred more on it before trading it in.

Still a good truck at this point and its almost paid for too.
