Great job Russ. Next thing you know you'll be on Alaskan flippers.

Honestly it would be hard for me to flip a vehicle because I have a knack to want to make everything right.

Nice outcome! Sounds like you made a couple of grand. Gotta love those quick flips.
Reminds me of when a coworker sold me his 1998 Explorer 5.0awd for $1k and I sold it 3 days later for $3k haha.

It is hard, you have to draw a line. My thought process is making sure it's 100% safe and reliable. If there are a few cosmetic issues well so be it. When I do a flip I have to move it fast or else I get attached to them and want to keep them.


Like I said I could not be happier how it all worked out, the new owner eventually wants to swap a cummins into it but needed more seats for his growing family now. I believe this truck will treat him very well for a long time.
