I have a 2003 Chevy silverado, 4WD ext cab 5.3 auto with 79,000 I'm trying to sell it and am asking $ 9500 . The body has two small dents(no bare metal) so I would rate it average. That sounds like a reasonable price to me - what do you think?

I think I will have another beer. Don
Fair enough price IMO.
Kelly Blue Book says private party value is almost 11K.

Have you ever tried to sell anything to KBB? [;)]
Your price doesn't sound bad, IMO. But, I have no idea where you live, how your local economy is doing, if you're going to sell it on eBay, or whatever. But, that sounds like a nice truck. How's the undercarriage? Is the truck rust-free? Dents are one thing, but rust, well...
Have you ever seen a car salesman offer you a magical number, much higher than retail, for your used vehicle?
Nope you haven't.
Blue book prices are a guide. I have bought and sold alot of stuff, using blue book prices.
Unless you find an absolute fool, you are not going to buy/sell vehicles for too much deviance from BB pricing.

And I always thought that... that thing... that thing... that looks like a shadow... was a shadow. Now to find out, it was YOU! YOU have been following me around, all my life, haven't you? Well, what else have I seen, or done?
just depends on how many are out there at the time you list it, and if anyone has any money this time of year

actually when i bought my 02, i had a ford exploder to trade in, found 2 2002 Chevy trucks on 2 different lots both had about same miles both in about same condition and asking price was close very close,
only difference was the one i picked had leather and a snug top cover,
the other didn't, lot A offered me $1800 for the exploder not a dime higher, lot B offered me $2800, so if there was ever a deal to be made buying a car/truck that was the only one i ever got.
it always looks good on paper at the time but after it sinks in they screwed you somehow,
but on this deal $1000 more was true money, probable didn't have as much in the one i bought is why they offered that much for the exploder,[:)]
As FCD said, buyers market.[V]
