i think i just stole a truck

well i found a 2002 ext. cab long bed, auto, 4x4 power windows and all that on ebay for 7200 and the guy only lived 20 min. from me and let me take it to my work and check everything out before i bought it. and as i still cant belive there is really nothing wrong with it. i pulled 10000 out and just got some 16x8 eagle alloy series 186 and 285/75r16 bfg mud terrains yesterday. still need to put gauges in it and an aftermarket fuel pump but seriously i still can not believe i got this that cheap. ill post pics when i get home

I think you'll be able to find all kinds of deals sooner myself, people want out from under their trucks because of fuel costs.

Case in point, friend of mine at work has a black 06, long bed, auto, 4WD, upgraded wheels and tires, less than 50,000 miles with an extended warranty, took it to the dealership about a month ago and they offered him 19,000 for it, said he went back last Sat. to the same stealorship and they offered him 9,000 for the truck,,,

He didn't do anything with it but it's a sign of the times

Did you pull codes? Just wondering. I hope you got a good truck. They seem to be getting cheaper with the price of lamp oil going up..

One mans junk, another mans GOLD. Story has been played out so many times before. Sure does feel good to win occasionally. Mine came off ebay also, and has been good experience. In fact the second owner also got it on ebay.
