Looks like a 'give away' for an '05 SRT-10 Quad Cab ...

I was at the dealer auction today, and there was a sweet silver SRT-10 QC with 11,000 miles up for grabs. I've never looked at the resale on these things, but I did know the MSRP was north of $50K.

Get this - They couldn't get a single bid on the truck at $29K. WTF? They started at $34K, walked it down $1K each step, and it still didn't sell. I asked a local Dodge dealer why a perfect condition SRT-10 Quad truck wouldn't bring $29K.

His reply - Because you just can't retail the damn things without giving them away. I came home and checked eBay, and saw dealers with Buy It Now prices just over $32K for trucks with only 2-3K miles. It sure looks like a TON of truck to me for that kind of cash.

What's the scoop with these things? I'm tempted to buy one just for the fun of having it ... But I don't want to not have any resale potential if the market just isn't kind to a 500+ hp truck.
