Queen of the Road: Hi Gabe! For a 2006 Ford F150 4WD V8 Ext Cab 5.4L XLT with 37,000 miles, wholesale prices range from $13,700 (being in above average condition) to $12,100 (being in average condition) and $10,600 (being in below average condition).

Keep in mind that the numbers above are the wholesale prices. A dealership will usually aim to sell it for +12%-14% more than wholesale, so their estimated retail prices could range from $12k to $15.4k.

Goodluck, Gabe!

Queen of the Road: The numbers below are all wholesale prices. For a 2006 Ford E250 Econoline V8 Ext. Cargo 5.4L with 80,000 miles, prices range from $11,000 (being in above average condition) to $8,700 (being in average condition) and $6,400 (being in below average condition).  Usually trade in won’t give you as good a quote, but it does save time overall. Just keep the above figures in mind when they tell you how much they’ll give you to trade in. Goodluck.
