Its not a bad deal for sure.

Cant tell if its a 2wd or 4, but if its a 2wd that decreases the cost of it quite abit. Also right now with the exchange rate it isnt worth it.

I was looking at getting a 05 or 06 a month or so ago, that needed head gaskets for 15,000 or so (cant remember the exact price).

Looked at a 05-06 at greenlight auto yesterday night it was a supercab shortbox 4x4, not sure of the fanciness of it, and it was only 21k.

Thanks, i didnt look through all the pics.

Then its not bad for sure. Too bad our dollar was 110 like it was before, then it would be a steal for us.

The ''Buy It Now'' price is $23,586.51 Canadian so not too bad, looks good and the miles are low enough but the warranty is just about up.

I wonder what shipping would be on something like that? Probably an extra 2-3 grand eh?

Yeah if I was to actually buy something down there I would go drive it back too. Often thought about that, was seriously considering doing that on a dump truck, and me and the woman talked about doing that with a new pickup and a new jeep diesel.

i would do it with a used vehicle, but not a new one. i find that with new stuff, buying locally is the best way to go provided they are worth dealing with. buying locally might mean a better service if its ever needed...

With brand new vehicles you get warranty no matter where you buy it from, you can always go back to your favorite dealer for servicing and whatnot.

Before with a truck, they were selling down in the states for 10-20 grand cheaper then here.

Thats alot of savings.

yes, no doubt you cannot be refused service, but you likely won't get "red carpet treatment" if you duped your local guy to save a few pennies... i dunno... to each their own i guess, i prefer to support the local businesses even if it costs me a couple extra bucks. it often turns around to my direction when some construction is happening...

case in point, i buy 99% of my recreational stuff from Schraders... i've now got a couple of offices to build and finish for them...

i bought from local Royal Ford, the owner is building a new home, i've got a good chance at doing the finishing and cabinets in it...

I definatly disagree you wont get red carpet treatment. Its all about how you act with people in general. If you go in there demanding this and that, then they will treat you the same way.

I bet if you got an atv serviced all the time at that schraders, and made buds there you would have gotten the work the same way.


But your defiantly free to do what ya want and buy what ya want for the price you wanna pay!

I am personally all about getting the best price. Service is easy to get, and making buds at places like that is a breeze for me.
