Didn't know you still had it. Why didn't you trade it in ? Too many miles ?

They would not give me anything for it due to the mileage. I have been offered a lot more than they would give on a trade. Besides, I still love that truck and would rather see who gets it.

Yep. They offered $8,000 for it the year before so I did not even ask. Told them I was buying outright, no trade. I was offered $9,000 for it yesterday.

What are you asking? $9000 is a good price.

Depends on the miles I guess. If I was offered $9000 for it, I would try to get $9500 out of the guy, and if not, guess $9000 still not bad. Just $9000 more in the bank.

Probably not, but the new year is coming up fast. If you really want to sell it, 9500 isn't all that bad. So that's 1500 more than the dealership offered, yea, not bad.

The John Deere turned over for the firt time since June an hour ago, I need to hook up two more wires, finish the headlight harness, make the exhaust brace, and fill it with gas. Cross your fingers that it starts and runs.

Kohler K321, the only engine to have in a 33 year old Deere. I will post up pictures of what it used to look like and what it looks like now later today.

Horrific crash in the Indy Car race today at Las Vegas. 15 cars. Dan Wheldon just got life flighted. They said like 20 doctors were working on him. He flew into the fence pretty bad.

I have to say, the Kawasaki is a good reliable engine as well, -surprisingly lol.

That's what's in my little green machine.
