This truck was in great condition until some 8th grader hit in the church parking lot. How he did it I have no clue. The parking lot is large and my truck was the only car in the entire lot. His dad said he was in first gear but I don’t think that’s true. If you want the truck fixed before getting it shipped I can have the shop that I use do it. The frame was not damaged. The truck still drives as good as it did. I swear I tell people that it got totaled and they look at the truck with this confused look on there face. I have photos of the accident that I can send or give the winning bidder. The paint didn't even crack. I was so upset and told his insurance that I didn't want any patch panels on my truck and the adjuster was so cool he said honestly Im just going to try to total it for you. He told me that he was graded by me at the end of the claim and if I'm not happy then he can loose his job.They decided to just total the truck. The estimate only came to a few thousand dollars repairing it with patch panels but since the adjuster knew that I was going to be upset with patch panels he just totaled the truck, and I bought the truck back. I was going to fix it but to be honest it's not that bad. I pulled it out by hand yesterday a little and it's so much better. The photos are from before I pulled the panel. I will take another photo and put it in the description. The truck runs great and I really want to keep the truck but my other projects are taking all my money. This F250 is really nice even with the damage. My mechanic just changed the fuel filter,oil,and three sensors. It runs great. The truck has a shift kit, and a chip that is not currently installed but will be included. The interior is clean but does have some wear. The 4x4 works great along with everything else. Its got cold AC along with a hands free phone set up through the radio. The tires are maybe at 40%. The paint and body is nice but has light scratches. Also there is some sticky residue on the drivers fender but I will rub it off. Please note this truck was called a total loss, but for some reason they just sent me a new title and its doesn't say its branded but the insurance adjusted said that it was a total loss. Im not sure how it works but I want to be clear this truck is being sold as is with no warranty. It runs great but Im not a dealer and I do not have any warranty with this truck. They sell patch panels for this truck and for both panels its about $700. Thats for the bed and the cab corner. I would just leave it and drive it. These are work trucks any how. I have to keys that go with the truck. If you need help getting the truck transported I know a couple transporters. Deposit must be made with in 48hrs and full payment must be made in 7 days. If the buyer does not communicate with me at all with in 36hrs from end of auction I will put it back up and report after 7days as a non payment. Thanks 1111111111
