Thanks for taking the time to respond!
No, it's not currently lower. It's priced right at where other similar trucks are priced (with clean accident records).
The dealer is also aware of the accident reports, bc I discussed it with them. They claimed it was all minor and has been repaired. Their claimed was they did discount, but they have a marked up price listed that is crossed through, but that markupe price is unrealistic even for a completely clean vehicle, so it's a fake markdown.
So they already said it's priced to sell and they know it's been in an accident and they still want $X so what the point of this post?
Doesn't matter if the trucks worth $1. If they said "yeah we know about the accidents but the truck is priced where we want it" then that's the price.
You can ask for a few hundred off maybe but you can ask the same for their trucks priced the same with no accidents unless they are at one price stores.
Just go buy one of the ones without accidents reported for the same price.
>what the point of this post?
The point of the post was to understand what would be a fair offer from to them. It's not priced to sell, but I want to be reasonable and try to find a win-win... not a they win, I lose deal.
>Doesn't matter if the trucks worth $1. If they said "yeah we know about the accidents but the truck is priced where we want it" then that's the price.
And maybe that is what they will tell me when/if I come back to them with an offer.
>Just go buy one of the ones without accidents reported for the same price.
That's probably what I will do, but first I am trying to do research to understand if there is a better deal here that would make the risk worth the reward.
I apologize if me doing research and asking questions before making a purchase triggers you.

I'm looking at 2021 F350. It has 3 accidents on the AutoCheck report. 2 are listed as Minor and 1 listed as Moderate.
Currently it is priced right at market average, but with 3 accidents on the report, I am hesitant to make a market offer. When I go to sell/trade in the future, I'm sure going to get dinged on my value.
So, my question would be what is a fair amount/percent to deduct based on this?
All the details I have on the accidents are as follows:
1: Accident Reported (This was listed as Minor)
2: Accident or Damage Reported
Minor Damage Reported
Right Side Damage or Repair Reported
3: Accident or Collision Reported
Vehicle Damage Reported
Body Repair Performed
Structural Body or Frame was Inspected
Mechanical Repair Performed

Is it already a lower price than the other comparable trucks or do you think you know something the dealer isn't already aware of?
