2nd Gen Purchase Question

Thanks so much. I appreciate all of your help last night with the carfax and all the advice.

 

Sometimes the deal is just being able to get what you want. Especially in used vehicles these days.

 

I read all the comments, I just came to say I think you made a great decision. The market (especially on these) in the last 2 years has been really tough. Sometimes you don't have the time to screw around and wait for the absolute best deal, sometimes you just need a good deal. Congrats!

 

Good job O.P. enjoy

 

Congrats on the truck OP

 

I think so too. I keep looking out my window like “damn that’s my truck, I own that” and that’s hard to put a price on. That’s why i didn’t try to drive him down too much lower, he didn’t really want to part ways with it but had to for a familial situation and it was fair for both of us I thought.

 

Thank you so much!

 

Thank you

 

Thanks so much. I kind of had that same feeling while searching for a vehicle. I actually lost a truck I really liked prior to this by haggling a bit too much and it was a good lesson for me to learn. That’s why I moved so quickly on this truck and with a bit more realistic expectations.

 

I joined the party too late but I was going to say I think that's not a bad price at all. Congratulations on the new ride.

 

Things to peek at on the 2nd gen...
Steering linkage for rust...
Power steering hard lines especially under the radiator...

 

That is awesome. I was about to reply with my thoughts when I saw you had bought it and was happy. Having the service records is golden. I bought my 2013 in October and felt inclined to do some maintenance things that might not have been necessary if it had good maintenance records. So that saves you some dollars I am sure. Congratulations.

 

I would recommend being more patient. And broaden your search area... for a lower mileage 2nd gen
