This guy was going to put this nice PIG at his lake house in Eufaula here in Oklahoma if my memory serves me right. We chatted some after he purchased it, wonder where ownership went south?

Dang I am curious, maybe @gonzopancho knows why he is dumping it. One summer in Oklahoma was enough, wasn't looking forward to another one....

Not a true afficiando

I have no idea why he's selling it, but my guess is he bought it because he thought it was cool, fixed the minor paint issues, replaced the alternator, but decided after a year that he's not driving it (and maybe the wife or GF hates it), so he's trying to get someone to take it off his hands.

I bet the reserve is set to at least what he paid.

Seller has now stated:

I have been given a business endeavor and this will help launch the opportunity. I truly hate selling this truck, but unfortunately part of the solution of the new business. Hope this explains.

I watched the last hour.. at like an hour to go it was still 37.5.... that last hour was like watching the super bowl, or an election night (and your nominee wins) !

82 5, that makes that initial investment of ~5k look pretty good!

It's a great hobby... I tell my wife, 'yes, honey, I'm spending $$$$'s, but it's all recoverable when it get's sold down the road'... Plan is to drive this one 3-4 years, attend some rally's, square it away, and then pass it on... but it's more than a hobby really... keeps me busy, chase down solutions to problems, camp on occasion, ....
you know the story... good stuff...

that 82.5 is exceptional, but it's an exceptional truck !!!

helps in the discussions w my bride!!
