Blue is sold.

I'm keeping Blue in the family, sort of. My gf in the North Pole wants him and won't take no for an answer. Saturday he goes north and Monday I'll get my F150 plates back to go on Red,

I've been dragging my feet on posting him up. I told her yesterday I was going to do it and that was all it took. So, I sold it to her for 4200. She told me she'd give me 5000, but I only paid 5200 for him in 2010, so for a grand, I've gotten my money's worth and she's getting a killer deal. I stole it from the first owner and now she steals it from me. Very fitting, eh? lol

I paid 4200 for mine... I think I could get that out of it right now. Yours is in better shape... you'd easy get 5200 down here, AK.

My Wife has driven it the past couple days. It just goes and goes. Always there when we need it.

I feel like I've got my money back out of it.... I'm sure even at 30K you do as well, Brew?

I think I paid $8100 for mine, got $5500 for the hail damage that happened while I argued with the dealer about the new motor, then spent half that or more getting it the way it is today (wheels/tires, audio system, seat heaters, alarm/remote start, tint, DRL's, etc.)

I think it paid for itself twice over.

I doubt it would be on the road if insurance wasn't next to nothing. That's the only thing saving it. It doesn't get used enough anymore.

Who knew welding would be so much fun shaving all the fender badge holes and fixing some holes I drilled in the roof years ago..... Doing it the right way, actually welding in new metal. No bondo filled fenders.
