1st) There is a reason that it's missing the chrome trim - it's probably been in an accident!! 2nd) It's purple!!!!! Seriously - there are WAY better runners out there for that price!

I know, it was more of a rhetorical question to get the potential buyer thinking.

HURRAY FOR THE PANTY RUNNER! Leave it that color, then when you get it dirty, dent it, and it starts to rust you will actually be happy! The rest of us cry when we bang up and scratch out trucks.

THIS ONE IS BEGGING TO BE CHERRIED OUT!!!
It has almost new tires and great running gear BUT the engine is a little noisey.
The engine runs smooth and has plenty of power BUT the oil pressure is a little low.

You can se it for a while BUT at some point you probably will have to fix it.
uhhhhh, no.

First of all, this guy types in ALL CAPS, that alone is enough to look elsewhere . Second, he lists crap like "cigarette lighter" and "reclining seats." Wow, somebody hold me back!

Personally, I would do more research and avoid these small wholesale dealers all together. Tell us your price range and we will try and recommend the best deal for what you need.

I think there was a reward for returning Barneys rig. The person that painted that runner should be stoned in the street (JK).

As for the other 2 runners I’d stay away. You could find an individual and probably get a better runner for a better price.

Have you seen these runners?

Runner 1 – Email and ask for pictures if he’s not to fare from you maybe go take a look at it.


Runner 2 - This is a 2 Door runner (RARE my way). If I was out my way I'd have to buy this one.

If you can’t work on cars I’d be leery about what I purchased and take your time. Here’s a website with some good pointers about buying used cars.

http://www.samarins.com/check/simplecheck.html = How to inspect a used car

http://www.samarins.com/check/index.html =Main page, the entire site is worth looking at.

Good luck!

PS – Don’t let them push you around. If the deal just doesn’t sound good walk away.

PSS - You might want to get a carfax report on any car before you buy it to. The unlimited for a month deal at www.carfax.com is worth the money if you’re purchasing a used car.
