Moving from Ne to Az, can't take the truck with

A few weeks ago I was laid off from the job I've had for the past 5 years. My wife and I have decided to move to Surprise Az to live a little closer to my dad. All that being said, we've decided that it isn't benneficial for us to take the truck with, so I'm gonna sell it. I need a little input from the site gurus. I'm thinking I should ask $4000 but I'm not 100% sure that's an accurate asking price. I'll take any constructive criticism. Good or bad, as long as it is constructive. The link to the truck and the build is in my signature. Thanks in advance.

I think that's a good asking price. Looking through your pics I was thinking $5k is way too high and $2k is low. So start at $4k and go from there.

I would recommend putting those rally wheels on if you still have them. You'll get a lot more looks.

I looked at pics.

I doubt in this economy you will get $4K. But start there so you can come down.

Re: Moving from Ne to Az, can't take the truck with

Thanks everyone for the advise and the welcome to AZ. We are planing on being there by Sept. 27 +- a day or two. If we could afford to bring it with, I'd love nothing more. Unfortunately the moving truck and trailer for my Impala alone will be close to 2 grand slits kind of forcing my hand. On a side note, I am aware of the heat. I'm also aware of the snow we get here, and I hate snow and cold. As a matter of fact last weekend the temps here in Omaha where higher then in Surprise. But I digress. Thanks again everyone for the advise.
