    I was being sarcastic. :anonymous:

    You know.. the repetitive "everybody wants this truck" drum beating from the dealer. I imagine the sound of millions of hearts breaking at the same time to be a little more quiet than expected.

    That front end is sketchy. That lower valence vent should be black not white. :confused: That and the body lines don't quite match up.

    That front door delivery is designed to make you feel obligated to them.
    It costs them nothing. Buy a truck, not a sales gimmick.

    I don't trust Carfax. My fiancé got burnt on her car.When it was purchased the carfax report was clean.When I tried to sell it the Carfax showed a major accident 1 year before she bought it.

    Good idea to have someone with some frame expertise and look at any hidden frame damages. Two set of eyes is better then one. Good to see more girls are into their trucks :thumbsup:

    that is not a carfax report though right? Looks like "Auto Check"

    My dad has a Tundra that has been in an accident. When we took it out to get trade in offers one dealer did a carfax and it showed the accident. Another dealer did some other kind of check (maybe auto check?) and it showed NO ACCIDENTS.

    something to consider. I would ask them to run an actual carfax or just pay for it yourself

    My Dads a mechanic who never had a son... I am the closest he got to one... Ive learned a lot about mechanical issues how to diagnose and repair as well as how to grind, weld, sand blast, sand, paint, use an air compressor (love that thing)... A lot of rainy days in the shop with my old pop did me some good.:cheers:
