Madhouse Posted September 10, 2018 Report Share Posted September 10, 2018 I don't know why I buy trucks so often, the one I just got rid of only had 13K miles on it. Anyway, it was time for a new color, I was done with black... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my Lightnings was black, my Mustang was black, my last two FX4 trucks were black. It'll be a while before I have another black vehicle, unless I get one that'll never see rain.

98Z5V Posted September 11, 2018 Report Share Posted September 11, 2018 Damn nice truck, man! I'll never own black, white, or red vehicles again. Black and white show EVERYTHING. Red just attracts the cops... I never drove that red RX-7 slow, though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found the truck I will keep for a while, "old Blue" bought it new in 1995. just last year I had it touched up, New A/C compressor and belt and hoses, It has never had the valve covers off. just new plug wires module and sparkplugs and a new Dual exhaust with glasspacs, it is a 350 throttle body FI.

I've sold my past two trucks to the same friend, a 2012 in 2016 with 36K miles on it, and then my 2016 in 2018 with 13K miles. He knows he got a very well-maintained and well-kept vehicle both times. I've also sold two of my Infiniti's to another friend, same deal, super-clean cars with low miles and they knew the full history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bought our 2012 M37X Infiniti from a friend who got it new, and put 14,000 miles on it in four years, with a complete service history and a transferable extended warranty. He had a C7 2014 corvette Z51 convertible he wanted to sell me last year that had 3,100 miles on it. But I have scratched my Corvette itch enough. my 2015 Ram Laramie 1500 with leather interior and an Alpena sound system. Had 7,500 miles on it, ended up $16,000 under the Sticker price when bought back in 2016. Has the full electronic suite.
