Opinions from Buyers Please
 
I am considering selling my boat. It has a trailer obviously and I have an '04 GMC dually that is mostly used just for trailering the boat. My question is this....Would it be more attractive for a potential buyer to be able to purchase the boat, trailer AND truck as an entire package? Or, would it smarter to sell the truck separate? Thanks in advance for your replies.

Offer it up as a package - can't hurt. You might find that one buyer that wants the whole rig.

I'd say sell the truck separate.the boat may or may not sell. The truck will sell.

List the boat and truck by themselves. In the boat ad, give the info for the package if anybody is interested.

Thanks for the feedback!

Offer the truck in the ad (for additional money) but don't price it as a package. The sale is going to be tough enough, especially if the buyer needs financing.

You can get rid of the truck easily, the boat not as easy.

Good luck, very cool boat.

Ha...I'd take $28k for it. It's an '04 w/ 75k on it, very clean with a few nice upgrades.

Maybe in Cali they get a few bucks more for diesel trucks but 28K seems strong when you could probably have bought that truck new for 40K. My reference point is my 03 2500 Duramax, sticker was 43K, paid 32K brand new w/71 miles on the clock. They had insane rebates back then, 3K for buying the diesel/2K for buying any GM car etc.

I'd prefer this thread not spiral into a discussion about used truck pricing. I was just going by what others are posted for online and KBB. And IIRC the 3500 dually was substantially more when new then the SRW 2500...
Anyway - Thanks for the feedback guys :)
