Vehicle Detail
Condition: I looked this vehicle up in Kelly Blue Book and I am not sure what to list as the condition. I would say in my honest opinion it is better than FAIR Condition but maybe not quite GOOD Condition. For a 1996 I am very pleased with the condition of the body. Both doors have some rust along the bottoms and the majority of the rust runs along the bottom of the wheel wells as you can see from the picture. There is a bit of rust as well that can be seen along the back bumper. This truck runs good with no known mechanical problems. It actually starts right up without hesitation and sounds great for having 169,000 miles. It seems the truck was well taken care of. I don't smoke and i bought this off my father who also didnt smoke. I canno't verify whether or not previous owners smoked in it but considering it is a 1996 i'm sure smokers have been in it. Features: There is driver side airbag, i don't see that there is a pssanger one. The original AM/FM radio and cassette works yet. There are power locks and winjdows, as well as cruise. The interior looks good, just needs a vaccummn and shine. I've never used the second tank but my said there are 2 gas tanks and you just push a button on the dash to switch tanks. There is also a cap as you can see from the pictures. I didn't like the looks of the cap on the truck so i took it off and was going to sell it but it seems easier just to include it with the truck sale. History: My father bought this truck from a friend as his second vehicle but it was only used when he needed it for a home project. He loved it and wanted to keep it but was in a pinch for cash when he asked if i wanted to buy it or if i knew anyone looking for a truck. I knew he needed the cash so i bought it, got plates, insurance and inspection thev next day. With 3 young children our primary vehicle is our minivan and our small pontiac vibe. This truck pretty much sits in my driveway taking up space. I enjoy having it when needed for home improvement projects but would just prefer to sell the truck for the space in my driveway, put the selling money back into my savings and rid myself of the extra expense at this time. Shipping: As for shipping, I'd prefer the buyer just come pick it up. Between my job, my wife working, and our 3 children and their activities we are quite busy. I would be willing to drive a couple of hours if it makes the buyer a little more easy in purchasing the truck. As for Payment I'd prefer a small non-refundable deposit of $250 via paypal within 24 hours of the sale and will be ok with waiting a week for the rest via check if you mail it to me, however, you'd have to wait a few days for it to clear before taking the vehicle. I'd really prefer the final payment as cash upon pickup though. I trust paypal but would hate to lose the fee for using it with a vehicle sale. Any questions please ask, i will get back to you ASAP. THanks for looking. Also, please see my 100% feedback!!On Jul-18-11 at 10:03:23 PDT, seller added the following information: Someone asked me to send pictures of the undercarriage, so pictures 13 through 19 i just added. The first 2 are the passanger side front, next couple are driver/front and the last 3 are from the rear. Someone in my city came to look at the truck and said its a solid truck considering the year and miles. He said the brake lines look relatively new. Suspension looks good and the engine sounds real nice. If he were to buy it, he'd evntually change the gas tank and exhaust, that was just one prsonal opinion, take it as that. Any more questions feel free to ask.
