According to this ad, all you have to do is get past the 150K mile mark, and you're worry free with a 6.0!

Probably told the guy that traded it in it's the worst engine ever made and he was doing him a favor.
Obviously the dealer knows nothing about a 6.0

It's actually not that bad of a price considering what the truck is. Now if we can only figure out what has been done to it.....

I like this line :
Slip behind the leather steering wheel and onto the leather, power seats and enjoy the clean cabin
Some creative writing in that ad.

They had to do something to make folks forget about what an anemic powerplant it had

Wow, that was sure a gutless era for vehicles for the most part.

Quite a creative add since there is no such animal as Corinthian leather.

Years ago, about the same era, I had a pair of stereo speakers that I thought looked very nice. Walnut cabinets that I would wipe down with expensive wood cleaning products every once in a while. Then once when we were moving my cousin read the sticker on the back (I don't know how I had missed it) it read GENUINE WALNUT WOODGRAIN VINYL VENEER. They never sounded as good after that.

I bought my rig last month with 350k on it... at that mileage does it just bullet-proof itself?

TIL (Today I learned) veneer needs to be maintained with the most expensive oils and microfiber cloth
