What's up with truck prices-RANT !!!!!

I went through similar, which is the main reason I ended up just buying a brand new truck. For just a few thousand more than what the dealers were asking for polished turds with way over 100k on them.

At the time, I couldn't find anything decent from a private party either, so I bought the new truck, then starting the week after, could find any number of nice used trucks for good prices. Go figure. That's always the way it goes.

I'd skip the crazy dealers and just focus on CraigsList, see what you can find there.
