ouch... gonna be hard to get past that one. maybe try the maintenance/replacement parts costs vs the reliability of the 01? I tried this in the past and was successful, just need to find a common breakdown on the beater truck and costs to replace it. Good Luck, sounds like you are going to need it.

Lucky. Lol.
Yeah...the final cost of the truck is " to be determined."

Ok. I'm still alive. What's the moral of the story? Don't take off and impulse buy a truck while the wifey is visiting Aunt Flow. Yeah...poor planning on my part. However, if I had it to do over again...would I have pulled the trigger? Yes. My Saturn wagon is a good little beater, but I just got sick of not having a SUV/truck type thing to drive.
I'll try to upload some pictures this weekend. For some reason, my blackberry is unable to email pictures. It's basically this truck, but cleaner. Same color, wheels, etc. The interior is spotless. They obviously didn't have kids or ever use the back seat (the drivers seat is the only one that even had wear). It was a one owner truck (original window sticker in the glove box). There's a tiny ding on the passenger side and three small scratches on the tailgate. Other than that, the body is clean.
It has skid plates, but it doesn't look like it's ever left the pavement. It came with newer P series tires, which don't look particularly impressive...but ride GREAT. Seriously...at 80 MPH on the highway, this thing purrs right along. It really runs/drives great.
