Vehicle description
Price is non-negotiable
This truck is amazing. I picked it up in Iowa with a trailer and drove it 2500 miles back in a week. It"ll run on anything, go anywhere (6wd w/ air shift to engage front axle on the fly), carry more than a pickup, tow more than a pickup, turn heads, and all for less than a used econobox. If you"re thinking of an RV build like I was, it"s only 22 feet long, which makes for nice cheap registration.
The only difference from the photos is that the trailer is not included in the sale, and neither is the gun ring. I know it looks cool, but it is about 1/3 as loud in the cab with metal instead of canvas between the driver and the exhaust.
Recently had it in the shop for a pre purchase inspection and they said the only thing wrong with it is that fifth gear is missing a couple teeth. Now that is actually pretty annoying because cruising speed is only 48mph in 5th, and 39 in 4th. But the transmission is an easy cheap swap if it"s worth it to you to fix it, hence the reduced price. If you aren"t putting freeway miles on it it may not even be worth the trouble.
I really love this truck, I don"t actually want to sell it, but I"ve been storing it on other people"s land (still starts right up and drives fine) and I don"t see that changing anytime soon. I"ll just have to pick another one up when I have space of my own. It"s got a bunch of goodies and parts in the bed that will come with the truck.
