Probably all highway miles though.

You had 9.7 MILLION MILES ?!?!

Probably on the second engine by now....

28K is low but i believe there are many VX's out there with that kind of mileage. I would try to find ads for VX's for sale with similar mileage and show the dealer the low price ones. Let them know that you are more than willing to travel to find the right truck. If they smell that you REALLY want that truck they arent gonna budge on price. Good luck!!!

If you were to offer them 14,000 I'm sure they SHOULD take it as they most likely only gave the old owner 9,000 trade in value. I would offer $12,000 and see what they say and just walk out (make a little scene so they remember you) if they say no. Then two days later offer $13,000 and do the same, then go back and say "$14,000 take it or leave it" and if that person knows of your previous visits they KNOW you will leave, so they will work with ya. I know you probably want it bad but don't let the dealer screw ya.

Yeah, but if he knows of your previous visits, he also knows you will come back in 2 days and offer him $1K more than today.

I paid 15,800 for a '2001 Proton w/ 28,000 miles last month. I did a whole research spreadsheet with about 120 VX's all over the country and when I checked back over four weeks the only ones that sold were around 16K for under 40,000 miles. The ones that are priced between 18K - 20K are all still sitting there, and the ones that sell within days are under 15,000 miles. The only one that sold for full price was a Proton with 15,000 miles for 17 something.
