trade in condition
I'm looking at trading in my 06 to get an 11 crewcab 4x4.. The dilemma is i have longtubes with no converters , and i still have 60lb injectore spliced in from when i had turbo. Would i be able to trade it in as is and the dealership return it back or and i take a hit in tradein value or do i have to replace everything back to stock?

I don't think you'd have to worry about the injectors, headers or converters...but a stock muffler would be much better...Or stock Cat back. The person that inspects your trade isn't a mechanic or anything...he just wants to see how it drives looks and sounds. Clean it inside and out, make sure there are no rattles, and toss on a stock or stock replacement muffler.
And if you have a tuning software, soften up the shifts a bit. They like it to drive like stock.
Thats all I did with my 03 and I got 16K for trade on my 2010.
If you don't want the aftermarket parts, no use trying to find stock ones and replacing them all, than having all the leftovers take up room in your garage.

i figured they won't really have anyone that knows what they are looking at but i don't know what problems could arise down the road when they go to sell it.. what could come back and bite me in the ***.. if i was able to find someone that can trade me exhausts at a moments notice i would probably go that route but this is my dd so can have too much downtime... ill probably pull the bed cover and sell it not sure if the factory 20s would be worth more on trade in or selling them outright.
my biggest problem is go with z71 package or max trailerimg package for the 373 and rear discs lol
