THIS IS A SUPER NICE TRUCK FOR THE NEXT OWNER! IT HAS HAD ONLY 1 OWNER! A 98 WITH 1 OWNER! VERY RARE! IT ALSO HAS VERY LOW MILEAGE FOR ITS YEAR, AT THE INDUSTRY STANDARD THIS TRUCK WOULD HAVE AN ADDITIONAL 65K MILES! SO AT 115K THIS TRUCK IS LOW MILEAGE! IT HAS LEATHER INTERIOR, POWER SUNROOF, ALLOY WHEELS, AND SHARP WHITE PAINT! THE BODY IS FREE OF ANY RUST OR LARGE IMPERFECTIONS, AND IT RUNS AND DRIVES VERY WELL! THE MOTOR RUNS STRONG AND SMOOTH, TRANNY SHIFTS PERFECT, IT HAS NO SERVICE LIGHTS ON, NO FLUID OR EXHAUST LEAKS, ALL THE OPTIONS SEEM TO WORK WELL INCLUDING ICE COLD A/C, AND IT GOES DOWN THE ROAD FREE OF ANY MAJOR RATTLES, SHAKES OR VIBRATIONS! ITS 4X2 SO NO TRANSFER CASE ISSUES TO WORRY ABOUT, A PERFECT RUNNING, NICE RIDING TRUCK, WITH NO DRIVABILITY ISSUES! THE EXTERIOR IS ARTIC WHITE IN COLOR! VERY SHARP WITH THE ALLOY WHEELS, TINTED GLASS, GREAT BODY STYLE AND THE FANTASTIC OVERALL CONDITION! THE BODY IS FREE OF ANY RUST, LARGE DENTS, SCRATCHES OR IMPERFECTIONS, AND THE FINISH HAS A GREAT SHINE! A SUPER NICE LOOKING TRUCK! WE ALWAYS DO OUR BEST TO DISCLOSE ANY "NOTEWORTHY" IMPERFECTIONS, AS WE WILL HERE: ON THE LEFT REAR QUARTER RIGHT WHERE IT MEET THE REAR WINDOW, IT HAS A SMALL CREASE TYPE OF DENT (PIC INCLUDED). THERE IS SOME PEELING ON THE ALLOYS. THATS IT! OTHERWISE NOTHING MORE THEN A MINOR DING, LIGHT SCRATCH, SMALL TOUCH UP, NOTHING THAT WOULD BE CONSIDERED OUT OF THE ORDINARY FOR THE YEAR AND MILES! I REALLY CLEAN BODY! IT SEEMS TO BE 100% FACTORY PAINT! OVERALL THIS TRUCK IS VERY SOLID, VERY CLEAN, AND VERY SHARP LOOKING! THE INTERIOR IS TAN LEATHER WHICH ALSO SHOWS VERY WELL! THE LEATHER IS FREE OF ANY RIPS, TEARS, BURNS, CRACKING AND IT SHOWS NO HEAVY WEAR! REALLY GREAT SHAPE FOR A 12 YEAR OLD TRUCK! AFTER ALL ONLY 115K! THE CARPET, DOOR PANELS, DASH, ETC.. ARE ALL IN GOOD CONDITION AS WELL! THIS IS AN XLT HOWEVER IT HAS THE OPTIONS YOU WOULD FIND IN A LIMITED! IT HAS POWER WINDOWS, LOCKS, MIRRORS, SEAT, TILT, CRUISE, A/C, AM/FM CD PLAYER, DELAYED WIPERS, LEATHER, A POWER SUNROOF AND MORE! ITS VERY CLEAN! HAVING HAD ONLY 1 OWNER, ALONG WITH THE SOLID, RUST FREE BODY, THE SPOTLESS INTERIOR, THE FANTASTIC RUNNING/DRIVING CONDITION, AND MOST OF ALL HAVING ONLY 115K MILES, THIS WILL BE A GREAT, INEXPENSIVE, LOW MILEAGE SUV FOR THE NEXT OWNER FOR MANY MORE GOOD YEARS AND MILES OF SERVICE! PLEASE READ BELOW, AS WELL AS MY PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS (PAYMENT TAB IN DESCRIPTION BOX ABOVE) BEFORE BIDDING! ATTN: WE UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE COUNTING ON OUR PICTURES AND OUR VERBAL DESCRIPTION OF THIS VEHICLE, AS IT IS ALL YOU HAVE TO GO ON, AND WE PROMISE TO DO OUR BEST NOT ONLY TO DESCRIBE THE POSITIVES OF THIS ITEM, BUT ALSO TO DISCLOSE ANY MECHANICAL DEFECTS THAT WE FIND ON OUR INSPECTION/TEST DRIVE (WHICH WILL BE DESCRIBED NEXT), AS WELL AS ANY "NOTEWORTHY", OUT OF THE ORDINARY COSMETIC IMPERFECTIONS AS WELL! PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT A "NOTEWORTHY IMPERFECTION IS DIFFERENT ON ALL VEHICLES, AND YOU MUST HAVE REASONABLE EXPECTATIONS, THAT COINCIDE WITH THE YEAR AND MILEAGE OF THE VEHICLE YOU BUY! A NOTEWORTHY IMPERFECTION IS A BLEMISH THAT IS MORE THEN YOU WOULD EXPECT TO FIND ON A COMPARABLE VEHICLE! DESCRIBING NOTEWORTHY IMPERFECTIONS ON A 2009 BMW WITH 12K MILES, IS MUCH DIFFERENT THEN A NOTEWORTHY IMPERFECTION ON A 15 YEAR OLD PICKUP TRUCK WITH 165K MILES! SO WHILE WE DO OUR BEST TO DISCLOSE ANY "NOTEWORTHY" IMPERFECTIONS OR DEFECTS, WE ASK YOU TO HAVE REASONABLE EXPECTATIONS THAT COINCIDE WITH THE VEHICLE YOU ARE BIDDING ON! ALSO A NOTEWORTHY MECHANICAL DEFECT ON A 10 YEAR OLD, 100K MILE VEHICLE IS NOT A SUNVISOR THAT DOES NOT CLICK IN PLACE CORRECTLY, OR A RADIO PRE-SET BUTTON THAT DOES NOT LIGHT UP AT NIGHT, WHILE A POWER WINDOW THAT DOES NOT WORK OR AN A/C UNIT THAT IS IN-OP WOULD BE A "NOTEWORTHY" DEFECT! SO AGAIN, PLEASE HAVE REASONABLE EXPECTATIONS, REALIZING THAT YOUR VEHICLE MAY HAVE ITS SMALL SIGNATURE ISSUES, AS WOULD A SIMILAR VEHICLE OF THE SAME YEAR AND MILEAGE! THESE VEHICLES ARE SOLD IN A 3 DAY, NO RESERVE FORMAT, ALWAYS SELLING FOR WHOLESALE OR BELOW PRICES, SAVING YOU THOU$AND$ OF DOLLARS IN MOST CASES! THE INSPECTION THESE VEHICLES RECEIVE IS: A VISUAL INSPECTION LOOKING FOR LARGE IMPERFECTIONS COSMETICALLY ON THE EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR< A VISUAL INSPECTION OF THE MOTOR FOR FLUID LEAKS OR OTHER ISSUES THAT COULD BE SEEN BY THE EYE! WE DO NOT LAY DOWN ON THE GROUND UNDER NEATH THEM OR GO AROUND THEM WITH A PAINT METER GIVING YOU THE THICKNESS AND THE CONSISTENCY OF THE PAINT ON EACH PANEL! WE DO COMPLETE A THOROUGH WALK AROUND SO WE COULD DISCLOSE ANY RUST OR LARGER THEN NORMAL IMPERFECTION, THINGS THAT ARE OUT OF THE ORDINARY FOR THE YEAR AND MILEAGE! THEY THEN GET A 20 TO 30 MINUTE TEST DRIVE, BY A 18 YEAR VETERAN IN THIS BUSINESS, WHO AGAIN WOULD DISCLOSE ANY MECHANICAL ISSUES OF SUBSTANCE, SUCH AS IN-OP WINDOWS OR A/C, MAJOR BRAKE PULSATION, ETC, ETC...! AGAIN, WE DO NOT PUT THEM ON A LIFT AND PULL ALL THE TIRES OFF AND INSPECT EVERY PART IN THE CAR! SO WHILE WE WILL DISCLOSE ANY DEFECTS WE FIND ON THE ABOVE MENTIONED INSPECTION, WE ARE NOT SAYING THAT THE ITEM HAS ALL NEW PARTS AND NEEDS NOTHING, WE ARE ONLY STATING THAT WE FOUND NO FLUID LEAKS, OR MECHANICAL DEFECTS, THAT WERE NOTICEABLE TO US! SO AGAIN, WE STRIVE TO GIVE YOU AN ACCURATE DESCRIPTION, BUT PLEASE YOU ALSO HAVE TO KEEP REASONABLE EXPECTATIONS THAT WOULD GO ALONG WITH ANY SIMILAR VEHICLE, REGARDLESS OF THE DESCRIPTION! LASTLY, PLEASE DO NOT BID IF YOU ARE NOT FULLY PREPARED TO COMPLETE THIS TRANSACTION! PLEASE CHECK INTO THE SHIPPING COST, YOUR FINANCES, SPEAK WITH YOU SIGNIFICANT OTHER IF NEEDED, AND IF YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO, OR IF YOU ARE WILLING TO ABIDE BY THEM! THIS IS HOW WE FEED OUR CHILDREN AND PAY OUR BILLS, IT IS NOT A SOURCE OF ENTERTAINMENT TO BID AND THEN BACK OUT! IT IS TIME CONSUMING FOR US, IT IS COSTLY TO US, AND IT IS PLAIN AND SIMPLE NOT A FAIR AND STANDUP WAY TO DO BUSINESS, AND I WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING TO TAKE AWAY YOUR ABILITY TO FEED YOUR CHILDREN, SO PLEASE HAVE THE SAME RESPECT! IF YOU ARE A NEW MEMBER WITH 0 FEEDBACK I WILL NEED A CONTACT # FOR YOU IF YOU ARE HIGH BIDDER ON MY ITEM JUST SO WE CAN TOUCH BASE! I LOOK FORWARD TO DOING BUSINESS WITH YOU WHETHER YOU HAVE 0 FEEDBACKS OR 1000, JUST A POLICY I HAD TO PUT IN PLACE AFTER MANY NO PAYS FROM NEW, 0 FEEDBACK WINNERS! SO NOTHING PERSONEL, JUST A POLICY! THANKS AND GOOD LUCK!
