I saw that ad in Colorado, Idaho, and Montana just today!

All original... Quick count... I found 8 things not original

Yeah, I'm a Delawarian and would have stalked that guy back to his house if I knew where ANYONE in DE was selling that rig for $6900. If you hear back tell him you know someone local who will look at it for you. My guess is that's the last time he'll email you again.

My guess is it's a Nigerian Prince who moved back to his country with a billion dollar check he wants you to help cash for him......AKA SCAM!!!!!

I have chased some of these scams via an email account I do not use, just for kicks. Usually the same story. They sold it to someone who already paid for shipping then backed out. It is already at the shipping company so you cannot see it, so once you pay them the shipper will deliver it to you on the other purchases dime. Shocking that anyone falls for it, but I guss you throw it at enough people you will find one.

On a side note I have to say I've never seen a rear winch on a 40 before. Seems pretty cool, anybody have info on such a setup? Oh and yeah that's a scam.

It was in Boston yesterday...haven't checked today, but I flagged them. There have been a ton of scam ads that appear to be the same style as that one. They have 1-4 pics and a very brief description with no contact information. If you see one like that and the price appears to be too good....flag it immediately.

It was on CL in Maine about two weeks ago. There is also a '94 with a 4bt diesel that keeps popping up on CL. It looks beautiful and is only going for $2550. Free shipping from Washington state to anywhere in the country. What a bargain...

i'm a little surprised no one has any info on the cruiser itself,, looks like a nice clean rig, the rear winch is a cool idea, any one ever rig pullys up to use the front winch under the vehicle to the rear?

Scam. I am also a Delawarean and the ones around here are way rustier! Haha
