(ATTN: EBAY AUTOMATICALLY PUT THE MOTOR IN THE DESCRIPTION BOX ABOVE AS 4.6 V8, IT IS IN FACT A 4.2 6 CYLINDER)!THIS IS A VERY NICE TRUCK AND WILL BE A GREAT DEAL FOR THE NEXT OWNER! THE TRUCK HAS THE 4.2 V6, GIVING IT A BIT OF GET UP AND GO, IT IS RESPONSIVE ON THE FREEWAY, BUT IT STILL GETS REALLY GOOD MPG'S FOR A PICKUP TRUCK! ITS A REALLY SPORTY TRUCK AND ITS FUN TO DRIVE! THE CHROME WHEELS, 2 TONE PAINT, AND SHORT BED LEND TO ITS SPORTY LOOK! THE CARFAX SHOWS ZERO ACCIDENT REPORTS AND ITS 100% FACTORY PAINT! MECHANICALLY THIS TRUCK SEEMS TO BE 100% TURN KEY, READY TO ROLL! AFTER ALL ONLY 99K! BEING A 97 THATS AN AVERAGE OF JUST 7K MILES PER YEAR! VERY LOW! 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! JUST A GREAT RUNNING, NICE RIDING TRUCK, WITH NO DRIVABILITY ISSUES! AS ALWAYS WE DO OUR BEST TO DISCLOSE ANY NOTEWORTHY MECHANICAL DEFECTS AS WE WILL DO HERE: I FOUND NOTHING AS FAR AS "NOTEWORTHY" MECHANICAL OR DRIVABILITY ISSUES WITH THIS TRUCK, IF THERE IS ANYTHING IT MAY HAVE AN EXTREMELY SMALL EXHAUST NOISE WHEN ICE COLD, IT GOES AWAY AFTER 1 MINUTE OF RUNNING, BUT I MAY NOT HAVE EVEN HEARD THAT! ITS JUST A COMMON THING ON THESE AND I LISTEN VERY CLOSE FOR IT! OTHERWISE THIS TRUCK DOES EVERYTHING RIGHT! JUST A PERFECT RUNNING, NICE RIDING TRUCK! ZERO RUNNING OR DRIVABILITY ISSUES! BID WITH CONFIDENCE! THE EXTERIOR IS 2 TONE SANDSTONE METALLIC WITH DARK CHERRY LOWERS! A GREAT COLOR COMBINATION! IT SHOWS VERY WELL! VERY SHARP WITH THE CHROME WHEELS, GREAT SHORT BED BODY STYLE, GORGEOUS COLOR COMBINATION AND THE FANTASTIC OVERALL CONDITION! THE BODY IS FREE OF ANY RUST, LARGE DENTS, SCRATCHES OR IMPERFECTIONS, AND THE FINISH HAS A GREAT SHINE! OF COURSE IT WILL HAVE THE AVERAGE LIGHT SCRATCHES AND IMPERFECTIONS YOU WOULD EXPECT ON ANY SIMILAR TRUCK, BUT NO RUST OR LARGE IMPERFECTIONS, A SUPER NICE LOOKING TRUCK OVERALL! NO PAINT BLISTERS AROUND WHEEL WELLS, NO CHROME PEELING ON BUMPERS, CERTAINLY SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN GARAGED FOR A LARGE PART OF ITS TIME IN SERVICE! ALSO IT HAS VERY LOW MILEAGE FOR THE YEAR! IT HAS A BEDLINER THAT SHOWS WELL, NOT ALL SCRATCHED AND GOUGED AS IT WOULD BE IF IT WAS A WORK TRUCK! (SORRY ABOUT THE LEAVES IN THE PIC, ITS FALL!) WE ALWAYS DO OUR BEST TO DISCLOSE ANY "NOTEWORTHY" IMPERFECTIONS, AS WE WILL DO HERE: IT HAS A SMALL "CREASE" TYPE OF DENT ON PASSANGER DOOR WAY UP TOP< VERY MINOR! THATS IT! OTHERWISE NOTHING THAT WOULD BE CONSIDERED OUT OF THE ORDINARY FOR THE YEAR AND MILES! ITS 100% FACTORY PAINT AND FREE OF ANY PRIOR ACCIDENTS! THIS TRUCK IS VERY SOLID, VERY CLEAN, AND VERY SHARP LOOKING! THE INTERIOR IS TAN CLOTH WHICH ALSO SHOWS WELL! IT HAS THAT SMALL PULL IN THE CORNER OF DRIVERS SEAT THAT THEY ALL GET BUT OTHERWISE THE SEATING IS FREE OF ANY RIPS, TEARS, BURNS, STAINS AND IT SHOWS NO HEAVY WEAR! THE FLOOR, DOOR PANELS, DASH, ETC.. ARE ALL IN GOOD CONDITION AS WELL! IT HAS ALL THE OPTIONS YOU NEED IN A TRUCK! AUTO TRANNY, ICE COLD A/C, AM/FM STEREO, DELAYED WIPERS, AND MORE! COLD AIR AND MUSIC! NO FANCY FRILLS THAT INEVITABLY BREAK AND COST YOU $$! A NICE INTERIOR, VERY CLEAN! WITH ONLY 99K, ALONG WITH THE SOLID RUST FREE BODY, THE ACCIDENT FREE HISTORY, THE NICE INTERIOR, AND THE FANTASTIC RUNNING/DRIVING CONDITION, THIS WILL BE A GREAT, INEXPENSIVE, NICE RUNNING TRUCK FOR THE NEXT OWNER FOR MANY MORE GOOD YEARS AND MILES OF SERVICE! PLEASE READ BELOW, AS WELL AS MY PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS (HIT "PAYMENT" TAB IN DESCRITION 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
