Default Why Wont' My Truck Sell??

Alright guys, I put my truck for sale on here and a few other internet sites, and I've had absolutely no interest in it. Why not...??

Give me HONEST advice as to why my truck won't sell; Is the price too high, is it just a POS, maybe because of the lift, mods, not advertised right, what...??
I'm attaching the sale thread.

BTW- This thread isn't an attempt to post it again, but to get ideas on what I can do to sell it.

Thanks man.

Yeah, I guess it is a tough time to sell, especially a 2WD up north.
So, it's not necessarily the truck, but the times. Damn economy...

And yep, I did try craigslist, but all I ever get is spam and scam emails. damn internet...

It's a truck....that's why it won't sell. I hate to say it, lol. It's hard to find a truck buyer these days because most people are concerned with gas mileage and resale value. The car market is bad today in general but trucks are suffering even worse.
