Hello all. My name is Dan I'm from Cleveland Oh and I'm going to be buying a 2006 lbz after the holidays and the guy gets back into town. I thought I would subscribe to the forums in advance and get some opinions on the truck it's perfect for what I'm looking for. I come from a 24v world so I'm exited to finally have a Duranax.

Here's the link-

Thanks for any input!

Welcome. Nice truck but that's a lot of money for an 8 year old truck. Maybe that price for a well built one

The kbb value is 31,300 for 70k miles. He also has like 8k in aftermarkets (I know they don't add much value) but we talked and the number is 29,750. Low mileage Lbz Lt Dark color combo mint is rare.

In my opinion KBB is always high on value. I'd use them and NADA (which is 28k) as a guide and also do some research on what comparable trucks within a couple hundred miles are selling for.

$29,750 isn't as bad. Truck is very clean with a lot of nice features! And as said it's your money after all so go where it makes you happy!

Clean truck. If it was a ltz asking price is right on for around here. Easy. Many in the 29-32k range. 07classics actually are holding better value the lmms around here. Buddy was lookin for a dmax last few weeks, drove all over everywhere, ended up buyin a 09 because they were cheaper. Crazy what the prices are.

As many have said, too much money. If possible keep looking around and expand your search parameter if necessary. That is a ton of money to spend on that old of a truck. None the less, best of luck to you and I'm happy you will finally feel comfort coming from a dodge and all. :thumb:

Btw, welcome.

Banks emblem on the door puts it into like 35k territory where I'm from! Nice pickup dude I'd pay like 26k for it after I went over it with a fine tooth comb but that's just me!

I wanna see all these loaded lbz trucks for mid 20k's with 70k Miles. Around here there all over 30k or very close anyway. I still say that price is right on.
