What to do with my old truck?

**BuddyLee.** · 06-07-10, 10:37 AM

1994 Dodge Dakota. 8ft. Bed. 227,000 miles.

It runs. The transmission slips so bad I'm afraid of taking some left turns across traffic. The radio and blower hasn't worked since it was resurected from the dead(lucky electrical fix).

Never had to donate,sell or junk an auto.

Are you hurting for cash? If not that might be an option.

Otherwise I'd at least try to see what you can get for it although it might not be worth much, something is always better than nothing. I'm sure there is a place that can give you a good estimate at least.

Might be a good place to start.
