YEAH!!! THE AUCTION IS OVER!!!!....... FOR NOW. HERE IS A PORTION OF THE LISTER'S ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS. IT SEEMED THE MORE HE TALKED, THE BIGGER THE HOLE I COULD DRIVE THAT PURPLE TRUCK THRU.
A:The seller in this case made the biggest mistake by not getting all the documentation. WRONG!!! IT IS THE ONE MAKING THE LISTING TO CHECK ALL DOCUMENTATION. IF YOU DON'T, IT SURE MAKES YOU LOOK SILLY DOESN'T IT?? I did check out Barret-Jackson Auction however did not want to trailer the truck in the winter from Minnesota to Az. And take the chance of hitting a snow storm. HAVEN'T YOU HEARD OF TRUCKING COMPANIES THAT SPECIALIZE IN HAULING ANTIQUE CARS? IT SURE SEEMS THAT YOU WOULD WANT SOMEONE TO HAUL THAT $750,000 PRIZE INSTEAD OF DOING IT YOURSELF. I had all the information to enter the truck. I am in the process of getting more documentation on the truck. I do know that the trucks value is only what a buyer is willing to pay. I welcome all critics and professionals that know anything as one learns something everyday. With all the Critic I did find out more information on the truck and that there were few made than first quoted. Also I get a lot of emails from persons outside of the Northern District of Ford. The truck was not offered there and were only a handful made in the Northern District also of Critics say they have never seen the truck or heard of it there for it is just a purple truck. I had posted the listing high to try and eliminate this riff raff that has emailed in. I clearly see that was a mistake. Like I said if people paid this much attention to our Troops and the good work that they are doing and dying for and spend as much time Honoring them instead of laughing for something they think is just a Purple Truck. I take no offence in an email such as yours and have flagged and reported all the name calling ones to Ebay. Ebayers should every time they laugh and mock this listing on this site and another should say a prayer for our Troops. The laughing would all be worth it then.Thanks for your email.
ONE MORE THING... I WONDER WHAT THAT THING WAS INSURED FOR? YOU JUST CAN'T GO TO YOUR LOCAL INSURANCE AGENT AND TELL THEM TO INSURE YOUR PURPLE FARM TRUCK WITH OUT THE DOCUMENTATION. TRY TO INSURE IT FOR $750,000. YOU'LL GET LAUGHED OUT OF THEIR OFFICE! I'LL BE WAITING FOR THE NEXT EBAY LISTING OF THE PURPLE TRUCK.

i don't care how much "documantation" the seller has.. it is worth no more than $3k tops...he is probably going to re-list it for even more if he says he is in the process in getting more info and documentation on the truck. and as 19704x4250 stated.. i do have to wonder what kind of insurance coverage he has..and if it is worth what he says,his property taxes on it must be out of sight!

</OThe concern was not the fact of who hauled the truck.<O
</O<O
></O>The concern was if a snow or ice storm was hit the fear was either rolling or jackknifing the trailer. <O
></O>I have seen may professional semi trucks drivers lose control and either jackknife or lay it on their side going through Iowa, Kansas and Missouri not to mention Minnesota.<O
></O>Just because one specializes in driving or hauling does not make them exempt from a good crash or roll over.<O
></O>I am sure that anyone that has tried to haul something and all of the sudden in a heart beat been looking at the side or rear end of a trailer would tell you that it can happen to anyone even if they do specialize in hauling.<O

Welcome to FTE PPE!
No need to go the holier-than-thou route with the "I thought this site was for truly the Ford Enthusiast" bit and also pulling out the "support the troops" bit in your original listing. It's a bit hypocritical (but really entertaining) cuz of your "greed", no? So in that case, you should donate the vehicle for a good cause/charity.
As you say in your own post, everyone has an option/opinion, even "[oher] true Ford enthusiasts". It ain't the truck we running down, and if you can't figure out what we are running down, well then . . . it's like what they say about finding the boob in the first 20 minutes of playing poker.
BTW - I'm secretly hoping the listing was a joke, cuz it was BRILLIANTLY executed if it was =) GENIUS! Anyhow, real or not, it was a super entertaining read - so thank you for that everything else aside. Really nice truck though (within reason)

Not sure how supporting our Troops in my listing was a bit Hypocritical.
I truley ment it!! The comments were said for the fact that there were thousand of people using negitive enery on the ebay listing. When it would be nice to use that engery to Support Our Troops.
I am a big supporter of our Troops and would have no problem donating to those who defend our children, us and our country Our FREEDOM!
How about you?
I have a brother-in-law that was to retire last year that is now going Irac to serve our County and my sons have plenty of friends in the 18-21 year age that are defending our County and I truley have respect and Honor for them.
Greedy I am not I would give anything I could to anyone that did not have.
I do give to Charities.
My local Sheriff Department and to the Local School District.
How about you??
I never said the price was set in stone and truley thought that there would be more people that would share there knowlage.
Hoiler-than-thou I am not.
It is a little harsh of you to jude someone you do not know.
I would say you think you are the ALMIGHTY!
Back to the truck.
Weather the truck is worth $1,500. or $?? that is between the buyer and seller to decide and that is the only Value it has!!
Period!
The truck is unique and has Ford History along with alot of other unique trucks.
