If you know anything about these model Sierras or the Silverado you would know that they have awesome reviews and get over 250k out of the engines and are very reliable trucks.... and i am a ford guy so deff not biased on this GMC. But thanks for your input ( really helps my ad) As of now truck is pending sale. Guess there are unrealistic buyers out in this world /:
KBB and NADA show your truck as being worth $14,500 in excellent condition with the options you listed, not counting the larger tires or lift. Now of course anything is worth what someone is willing to pay for it, whether it's above or below what you're asking.

The reason I said your trade was a little unrealistic was based on what you said...

The Rx7's i would be interested in: Mainly i want a 95' but would settle for a CYM, SSM with red interior, or any R1 r R2, LSX swapped. Car must be on the lower end of miles regardless. Like stated really want a 95' but will take a lower year if the model and miles are right, do not offer cars above 80k, the lower the better and i can put cash if need be ( miles are low enough) Or i have a few jetskis i need to get rid of can throw those in also with cash, i have options let me know what you have. Cars with documents appeal more to me over cars that dont have.
There are maybe 300 registered 1995 RX-7s in the United States. They are the most rare FD you can find and one with the mileage you're asking for is going to fetch $20K+. Likewise, someone who's spent money on going with a LSx swap in a FD is going to ask a similar amount unless the car is a real basketcase. And asking for a FD with 80k or less? By offering a 9 year old GM truck and a couple jetskis? This is unrealistic. Not saying that your truck isn't worth what you're asking but you're offering an average vehicle in exchange for a very rare FD. Now that you're selling the truck, you will have a better chance finding your FD IMHO and I wish you the best of luck.

One last thing. Don't be so hung up on miles. Around 80k miles, a stock FD tends to eat coolant seals and requires a rebuild. Seen this many times with customer's FDs.
