    The unfortunate time has come for me to sell the best car I have ever owned. With young twin boys that are just getting bigger, I need another vehicle that is larger and has more space to haul our things in.

    I'm very meticulous with my belongings, especially with my vehicles and this one is no exception.

    The truck still drives like it were brand new. No leaks, does not burn a drop of oil, idles perfectly, drives straight as an arrow and is such a blast to drive. I'm really going to be sad to see it go, but with a growing family and limited parking space where I live, it's time to find another owner who will take care of this truck just as I have.

    I want to sell this to someone who I know is going to be meticulous about maintaining this truck. It's too good of a truck to go to someone who will not take care of it. I cannot tell you how many random strangers have come up to me in parking lots or at ball games, asking if I would sell the truck.

    All you need to do is drive this truck and see it for yourself to appreciate just how well it has been maintained and how much fun and great it drives. You will literally think you're driving a new truck.

    Here are all the specs I can think of after sitting down and making a list of every single line item.
