That can easily be fixed with a few hundred bucks worth of 2-tone paint at your local body shop. Or about $1,000 worth of fancy loud paint job from an upfitter such as Western Hauler in Fort Worth.

Just called that dealer and yes they are selling these as used and not new. They have all been titled. So as a used vehicle it's not such a good price.

Cowboydoc; [img]images/icons/crazy.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/crazy.gif[/img] Even as a "used" (I use that term loosly) vehicle, with that few miles on them I would think that a private party should be able to resell them in the right market and make a couple grand. The highest mileage I saw was 219 I think. Heck the paint isn't even burned off the muffler yet. [img]images/icons/laugh.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/laugh.gif[/img] And it looks like they still have the plastic on the seats. If you are in the market for a new truck I think you would be foolish to pass this deal up. [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] One Question did the dealer happen to tell you where they came from? Some one went out of business etc....?
Just my .02
