Guys, it’s been great but I have to let her go after almost 17 years. What can I get for a 96 L/C with 308K on the clock? Original engine and trans. Burns oil and I have a small brake fluid leak. I drive it to work everyday. Not trying to rob anyone, I just want to get what she’s worth. Thanks all!

Pictures or a better description of general condition would help. Mileage is of lesser concern than physical condition and maintenance history.
I think in Virginia a lot will depend on the undercarriage rust situation. People on the east coast will pay quite a bit more for a truck that isn't plagued by the normal rust issues.

At least fix the leaky brake fluid so people won't low ball you for safety reason.

Why would you sell that? It’s got a couple little issues but it’s paid for and won’t leave you stranded somewhere most likely.
Whats the underside look like? Interior? Lockers?
For not much more than a few months payments on a new truck you can have the engine rebuilt and get another 300Kmi out of her.
You can refresh the interior, radio, seats... all of it really.

Looks like tan interior. If I could go back and start over I'd hold out till I found a burgundy with tan interior. Love that combo.
I'm torn between trying to talk you out of selling... and asking how much you want.

I know. I love the rig (I call it my tank) but I have a couple of twins that are turning 16 and don't want to have a driveway full of cars.

No lockers, but I can add more pics of the underside and interior in the next day or two.

You can't tell but the paint is faded on the hood and roof.

Lol! Trust me. I really LOVE this truck and don't want to get rid of it. Sure it needs a little TLC but it takes a beating and keeps on ticking.
You can get an engine rebuild for ~ $4K. So if you bought a $25K used truck and where paying $450/month, you could spend less than 9 months worth of payments and have a "new" engine.Really? What is "not much more"?
That sure beats 5 years of payments.
But if you're bored with the rig and just looking to move into something else... Its your money, have fun with it.
