New Member: Looking at buying a Silverado.
Hey guys! Im new to this forum, but I am a member on several other forums. I have the opportunity to buy a 2005 Silverado Z71. I have never owned anything but beaters my whole life (I'm only 23, so cut me a break), and I am not 100% sure what a good price to pay is. Ill give you guys the run down of what Im working with. If yall don't mind to throw out some reasonable prices as to what you would ask/hope to get/pay, I would greatly appreciate it.
-2005 Z71 Offroad Extended cab
-4.8 V8
-6.5' Bed
-75K ish miles
-Onstar
-Satellite Radio
-Spray in bed liner
-Bed Rails
-Running boards
-"All the bells and whistles" (I haven't gone to see the truck yet. I have only seen pictures, and I am basically typing out a text from my mother. Haha)
I know the truck has been taken care of its whole life. The current owner is very particular with his vehicles, so I know he keeps regular maintenance up on them. Mom also told me that last year he got into a small fender bender that only amounted to a couple hundred bucks, yet he still got the damage repaired.
That is pretty much all I have on it right now. Can any of you guys help me out with some info on this truck? I can throw up a couple pictures if yall want some.
Thanks for letting me hang out on the forum with you guys!

The KBB is nothing more than advertising.
Its a waste of time trying to get any info that way.
Your best bet is to call your bank, or any bank, and ask what the loan value is.
They will probably ask what the mileage is.
Thats the best advise I can give you, and believe it is sound.
At least you will have a number you can work from.
He may be asking more or less than what a bank would offer.
