There's been a lot of news out about used truck & SUV sales, and declining resale values. Add to that the high price-per-gallon of diesel fuel, and it seems like it's a double-whammy for diesel truck trade-ins. But at the same time, it's a prime buying opportunity if you're in the market for a late-model used diesel truck. Have any of you gotten smokin' deals lately on a slightly used diesel truck?

I was at a ford dealership the other day an I saw a 2008 F-250 6.4 with 4,500miles on it sellin for $30,000.  The guy workin there said it had been marked down like $12,000.  I wish I had $30,000
