Alright, I need someone's expert opinion.  I'm in the market for a new truck and a friend of mine is selling his.  I happen to know that this guy takes immaculate care of his vehicles and I trust him completely.  The price he is asking seems a little high.  What do you guys think?
 
Here's a description of the truck.
2004 f-150 FX4 ford
6.5ft flareside bed, 4 wheel dr,
5.4 L engine, auto trany, 28,000 miles
blk leather interrior(mint)
wht exterrior w/ gry rocker panel paint
Bed Rug linner in bed(very nice)
I got this truck Sept 2003(one owner)
That's only 7000 miles of use per yr.
Been stored inside all that time.
I've baby'ed this truck since i had it.
Price Tag $24,000
 
Thanks.

Its a super cab.  It is in the best of condition, I know the seller and he takes imaculate care of his vehicles.  It does seem high, but for the piece of mind that I would be buying a well treated vehicle instead of taking a risk on some other used truck.  I don't put a lot of stock in kbb when it comes to the resale value of trucks.  They seem to always be a little low.

I would personally like to have the $3000 extra dollars in my pocket giving me a piece of mind between what is being asked and what it is worth.
