Truth be told....We've already negotiated and both sides have agreed to a price. He's pulled the truck from the lot, had it detailed, and filled with diesel. Its in the back sitting. We're below the asking price by $3,000.
All of this was done by email-except the two test drives and the first initial lookie over.
Yeah, they could still sell it out from under me at this point. Criminy it can still happen while your in one office and another potential fish on the hook is in the next.
BTW Mark, just kidding on the jinx-but then you knew that already.....

Glad it's a 7.3. Someone must have changed the badges. I didn't realize that you had driven it. Of course you would have looked at the engine and known. I didn't mean to insinuate that you didn't know what you were doing. I have just seen on the internet where they say it's a 7.3 and it's really a 6.0 and vice versa. It looks like a great looking truck. I hope you get it. 47K that thing isn't even broken in yet.

That is one very sharp XL I wish the trucks at work looked that good 
. It looks to be a really sharp truck with low miles, the 6.0 badges could have just been put on there like I did on mine. If you could get that truck for 25K that would be a pretty good deal I hope it works out for you Jeff it looks like a done deal, atleast you got a dealer that will still give you a tank diesel that is a 200 dollar value .

Needless to say, I'll never, EVER do business with that dealer and I make dang sure to tell everyone I know who still lives there not to do business there either. Farking money hungry bastages... some teenage punk probably offered them asking price for it (since daddy was buying) so they sold it out from under me.

Deal done!.
Emailed the internet manager my information for the bill of sale earlier today (this was a business transaction), arrived on site, truck sitting in front detailed and ready to roll. Diesel tank full.
Did another once over, let the wife and kids eyeball it for a few, out walks the internet manager. Went inside, signed papers and handed check over. The whole thing was finished in about 15 minutes.
Probably one of the easiest vehicle purchases I've ever made. Dealer was professional the whole time. It helped that all they sell are trucks.
Too much work to do getting stuff from one truck to the other or I would post pics.
Off for a round trip of about 350 miles tomorrow and 250 the next. So much for that first "free" tank of diesel!!!!
