I PURCHASED THIS TRUCK A COUPLE YEARS AGO WITH THE INTENT OF BUILDING A CLEAN AND RELIABLE BACK-UP VEHICLE FOR MY LANDSCAPING COMPANY. I HAVE PUT A LOT OF MONEY INTO IT. THE TRUCK RUNS STRONG AND HAS ALWAYS STARTED AND RUN WELL FOR ME. IT HAS LESS THAN 500 MILES ON IT SINCE THE TRANSMISSION REBUILD. I AM SELLING BECAUSE I AM NOW OUT OF THE LANDSCAPING INDUSTRY DUE TO HEALTH PROBLEMS. AS THEY SAY, MY LOSS IS YOUR GAIN. **AT SOME POINT THE ODOMETER STOPPED WORKING- IT ONLY GOES TO 100K AND IT CURRENTLY READS "14,824".** I USED MY IPHONE FOR A SPEEDOMETER AND HADN'T GOTTEN AROUND TO FIXING IT BEFORE I DECIDED TO SELL IT. THERE ARE A LOT OF DETAILS LISTED IN THE CONDITION ABOVE. I HAVE THE RECEIPT FROM THE TRANSMISSION/ CLUTCH/ FLYWHEEL/ U-JOINTS REBUILD/ REPLACEMENT. ($4463.12) I HAD $1000 WORTH OF WORK DONE TO THE FRONT SUSPENSION. I HAVE TONS OF TIME AND MONEY INTO THE BODY. OLD RUST WAS CUT OUT, NEW ROCKERS, CAB CORNERS, FLOOR PANS, ETC. WELDED IN, TREATED AREAS WITH RUST NEUTRALIZER "POR 15", NEW BODY MOULDING AND ROCK GUARD/ BEDLINER AROUND THE BASE OF CAB. I USED THE TRUCK TO HAUL SKIDS OF SALT TO A CONDOMINIUM CLIENT I HAD 2 WINTERS AGO AND IT WORKED WELL. I WAS EASILY ABLE TO LOAD 4,000 LBS OF SALT ON PALLETS AND DRIVE SAFELY. THE TRUCK HAS NOT BEEN PLOWED WITH SINCE THE TRANSMISSION REBUILD- NOT 1 TIME. I PUT THE PLOW ON ONLY AS A BACK UP AND IT WAS NEVER NEEDED. PLOW HARNESS WAS NEW 2 SEASONS AGO. THE PLOW IS APPROXIMATELY 9'. THE PLOW MOUNT IS A HYBRID. THE COMPANY I BOUGHT THE TRUCK OFF OF USED IT AS A BACK-UP BUT THEY USED WESTIN. I HAD HINIKER SO I WELDED THE NEEDED PIECES TOGETHER FOR THE NEW MOUNT. I DROVE THIS TRUCK APPROX 250 MILES ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN I MOVED LAST YEAR (WITH PLOW AND TRAILER) AND IT RAN STRONG, NO PROBLEMS. RECOMMEND INSPECTING PLOW MOUNT TO MAKE SURE YOU ARE SATISFIED, ETC. PHOTO INCLUDED. I DID USE IT TO DELIVER APPROXIMATELY 5 LOADS OF MULCH LAST YEAR. I DROVE IT AN AVERAGE OF 1X PER MONTH SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT. I DID NOT RUN IT LAST WINTER AT ALL. I WENT OUT TO START IT ABOUT A MONTH AGO AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP ON THE FIRST CRANK. I DID NOT EVEN NEED TO CHARGE THE BATTERY. THE TRUCK RAN GOOD WHEN I PURCHASED IT BUT I BEGAN REPLACING THE COMPONENTS THAT I DIDN'T WANT TO REPLACE WHEN IT WAS 5 BELOW OR 95 IN THE SHADE. I HATE TO SELL IT BECAUSE OF THE MONEY (NOT TO MENTION TIME) THAT I HAVE PUT INTO IT. HOWEVER, I WOULD RATHER SOMEONE ELSE GET TO USE IT THAN HAVE IT SIT AT MY HOUSE. THIS IS NOT A SHOW TRUCK BUT IS A PRESENTABLE WORK TRUCK. I AM NOT A PROFESSIONAL MECHANIC OR BODY MAN. I AM SURE THAT I HAVE INADVERTENTLY FORGOTTEN TO MENTION SOME THINGS. FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME TO LOOK AT THIS TRUCK IN PERSON. I WANT YOU TO BID ON WHAT IT IS AND NOTHING ELSE. TRUCK SOLD AS IS, WHERE IS. I AM NOT OFFERING A WARRANTY AT THIS TIME. THANK YOU FOR LOOKING.
