Good morning fellas!

Got a little over an inch of rain yesterday. Good, now I don't have to water the trees.....for a while anyway.

It's Monday for me. Well enjoy the short week!

Well they did switch to the 6.0 sometime in '03, but his looks a lot newer than an '03.

Yeah according to the front end and all the badging it is an '05 and up plus I think those king ranch wheels were used on the '05 and up ones. It could have all been updated on an '03 though...who know's. He asking way too much for a truck that looks to be in tough shape and doesn't even run.

Edit: So I realized the truck is only 30 miles from me so I got a hold of the guy. Yeah he has no clue what he has. He just thinks its an '03 because he remembered hearing that year from somone. Said it is quite a bit of wear and tear and it does run somewhat but blows white smoke bad and has no power.

Looks like he says 2003 a few times,. Reading your post about talking with him, does he know about the data tag on the door or B pillar that gives the year it was manufactured? Unless he is no where near it to look at it

Good morning fellas!

Got the lawn mowed last night too! Good thing for headlights because it's getting dark way too early now.

Troy did he lower the price at all or is he firm? Could be just an injector or two but who knows. Have to get it cheap by the looks and sounds of it.

Yeah I told him where he could look or I said just get some pics of the inside. The dash would tell me right away. He was really clueless about the truck or at least acted that way. He wasn't right next to the vehicle when I talked to him.

Good morning Cory!

He said they were open too offers. Yeah I am guessing it is injectors but who knows without looking at it of course. I thought about going and looking at it but just too busy right now. Maybe if he still has it after a while I will go look.

Good morning Jay! Sure it is never too early to drink. You can't drink all day if you don't start in the morning.
