This is my daily drive in California where I work. I live in Washington state. My consulting job in CA is coming to an end after five great years and I no longer need this awesome truck. I would take it to WA except I have a 2011 version of it (a dually) in WA so I do not need it. This truck has just under 245,000 miles and is well maintained. I bought it from a fleet manager in Arizona. The truck was used by an inspector of agricultural irrigation systems. I have owned it a little over a year. It has run extremely well during my time. I kept it as an extra car as I work out of state and it was cheaper than renting a car every week. I added the hard shell tonneau cover with dual locks, I added to swing out in bead locking boxes. I had a new sprayed in Rhino liner installed in the bed. I added a bluetooth enable stereo with satellite, mp3, a USB port, but no video. I also added new running board steps to give a better platform for stepping up. This represents about $3000 in upgrades. The interior has a new custom dash liner. I had the front seats reupholstered with correct stitching and matching color to the rest of the interior. So the front seats are brand new. This was around $1000. The carpets are a little worn but servicable. The back seat is in excellent condition. There are no stains, tears or spells in the interior. The exterior is a little rougher. It is VERY straight and rust free. It has a key scratch down the passenger side. It had two vertical scratched on the tailgate which should show up in the photos. It is dark metallic green and looks very good from a distance. But, at 245,000 the pain is a bit chipped up just from going down the road. Like I said, very presentable but do not think the exterior is blemish free. Mechanically the truck is very sound. I use it for a daily driver. It makes annual trips from San Diego to Lake Tahoe and Seattle. Combined mileage/fuel economy is about 19 mpg. Freeway is as high as 24 mpg. Around town is more like 17 mpg. The company I bought it from changed out the breaks so they should be in very good condition. I serviced it per manufacturer specifications and had the local dealership replace all the fluids and filters and perform a complete service prior to listing the truck... $1000 (Ugh!) THis truck does not smoke, leak fluids or smell bad in any way. It is a great truck. Tires are getting to the point they will need to be replaced. At the asking price I will replace the tires. Below the asking price it will be your choice. They are in good shape. They have great traction. They are just getting to the point in their tread life where they will need replacing in the coming months. If you have questions, please feel free to write me through ebay. I am happy to provide you with anything I know about the truck. UPDATE 09/10/2014One ebayer asked for clarity, this is a 4WD and the engine and drive train work as they should. There are no leaks and it does not smoke or smell bad. UPDATE 09/16/2014A potential buyer asked about the bed/box. It is a short box with new Rhino Lining, locking hard shell tonneau cover, locking tail gate and two locking swing out tool boxes in the bed. That is nearly $1500 in extras. I know that has no value to the sales price but relative to the others on the market it is a significant advantage.
