Nada value is about 30k for a stock jeep. Asking price is 27,900. Fair?

29K miles isn't bad at all. As long as everything looks good, with everything it has on it, it's not too bad of a deal. Try and negotiate a little more off. I paid $24K for a stock 08 Rubi two years ago with 19K miles.

Being a former salesman I would venture to guess they have about 24,000 in it. I would offer 26 + ttl and see what they say. Most dealerships I worked for would be willing to do that. Hell I would even try 25,500 + ttl. Nice JK

That seams like a decent deal to me, just ask if they did any wheeling in it and ask for the service history. I did the same as you i found an 08 in Florida set up about the same + or - some stuff and i paid 28k for it. I've had it for over a year now and zero problems with it. Just be wary of the finacials of the deal, I was dealing with a mom and Lawyer and when i flew down there I ran into a few supprises that pissed me off and I ended up getting it a bit cheeper than they were asking for. PM me if you want the details. and as always be careful of "shit heads".

I don't think that sounds too bad. I would try to work a little bit more out of it.

Thanks for the replies. I would be buying it from a private seller, not a dealership. I'll try and work him on the price a bit more. I prefer to buy a jeep that is already semi-built, because I wouldn't be able to put a bunch of money into it for mods for a while, that's why this rig appealed to me.
