$3500 for a '00?

I saw this in CL this morning, I think I could buy it and then part it out and be money ahead on it.


Excursion sale or trade

Just because something is posted on Craigslist doesn't mean it actually exists. A lot of people list ads with "cheap" prices and only want to get your e-mail address. They then sell these e-mail addresses for X amount of $$$ per 1,000 to various other sources.

That CL posting looks to be the real deal.

I cover myself by setting up a "junk" yahoo email address and only use it for things like CL and eBay, etc. That way, my primary email isn't known by anyone other than legit places like FTE and my family.

Good luck!

Sounds fishy but if it is legit it will be gone by now anyway.

That's too high a price to part out, not worth the trouble imo.

If you reply via the CL reply button, CL will mask your real address.

There's an Excursion down here at a small dealership near me with $4,200 on the window. It's been there for a few days. I keep meaning to stop in and at least look at it. It looks decent from the road.
