History

This pickup has had one driver since new, It was used by my brother in-law, a project manager for a construction outfit, to commute between construction sites in the New England area. Typically this commuting would be driving empty, or hauling some construction tools in the back like air compressors or nail guns. Originally it was leased to the Construction company but when the lease was up it was purchased by my brother in-law and he continued to use it daily. The reason for sale is moving up to a crew cab pickup.

Condition
Over all condition is excellent, The gray/black Cloth interior is clean and smoke free as it has never been smoked in. It has been used to occasionally haul a couple of yellow lab dogs, and their hair sticks to absolutely everything as you can see in some of the pictures, but this hair does vacuum up fine.  The truck does not smell like dog inside, it smells fine.  All of the Glass is good with no cracks.The interior panels, floor, and dash are all as they should be.  The Exterior is also in excellent condition, the white paint shines just like it should. There may be some small dings or imperfections in the body if you look really closely, but nothing you wouldn't expect for truck of this age.
Tires are about half tread, plenty of life remaining in them for now.
Mechanically the truck is sound. The Engine/transmission/rear end/brakes/4x4 all function as they should without any strange noises or anything like that.
Overall its a well cared for pickup, with regular oil changes and routine maintenance.

Features
4x4, automatic, V8 engine. It has the WT package which is basically the bare bones options package, rubber floors, cloth seats, but it does have A/C, cruise control, and power windows and locks.  The Cruise control as well as the power windows and locks were added by the dealership, they are not factory options, but they were added properly and function as they should.  It does have a trailer hitch and the associated wiring, and has towed a small trailer twice that we can think of.  Also comes with a decent aluminum toolbox as shown in the pictures.

Inspection
The pickup is available for inspection near West Kingston Rhode Island, please use the contact seller link to arrange a time to inspect and take it for a drive.  It would be best to do this during the evening or weekend.

Shipping and Payment
There is a $250 deposit to be made via paypal within 48 hours. We would prefer if the buyer were to pick the truck up in person and pay the balance with cash or certified check/money order from a bank we can verify, but if you need to have the truck shipped/delivered to you, we will do what we can to help on this end.  Shipping/Delivery is of course ultimately the buyers responsibility, and payment is due before the truck leaves.  I'll accept personal check as well, but I need at least 11 days after receiving a personal check before the vehicle leaves.  The truck has a Clear Rhode Island title.  Also the pickup should be good to drive pretty much anywhere if you choose to fly in and drive it home.  The nearest airport is Providence (PVD), its about a half hour away.

What if you don't like it when you get here?
Well, hopefully that doesn't happen, and my feedback ratings should be assurance that the listing is accurate and descriptive of the pickup. But If you for some reason choose not to buy the pickup, we keep the $250 deposit to cover the cost of this listing etc, that is all.

2022 Genesis GV70, raging at VW ID.4 tech and thoughts on a new Lexus LFA | Autoblog Podcast #696

Fri, Sep 17 2021

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor James Riswick. This week, they talk about driving the Genesis GV70, VW ID.4 and VW Taos. They talk about ways Chevy could "fix" the Camaro. James ranked all the James Bond films based solely on their starring cars. Next, they reach in the mailbag and discuss the question, "Do you think Lexus will make a successor to the LFA and, if so, what do you guys think it would be like?" After ruminating on that query, they dip into the mailbag a second time to recommend a sporty crossover to a listener in this week's Spend My Money segment.

Best cars for snow and ice in 2023 and 2024

Tue, Jan 23 2024

What's the best car for snow? The real answer is "the one with winter tires." What do we mean by that? You could have the finest, most advanced all-wheel-drive system or four-wheel drive in the world, but if you're running all-seasons (the spork of tires), your fancy four-wheeler won't matter much. The odds are, any vehicle on the road running good winter tires will probably perform adequately in slippery, slushy and/or snowy road conditions. (Here's a more complete explanation of why winter tires are totally worth it). In other words, you don't really need any of the cars on this list. With a set of winter tires, countless others will do the job, and even these will be at their best with proper rubber. You can find a variety of winter tires for your car here at Tire Rack. Keep in mind that you will need a full set of four snow tires for safety and performance, no matter what you're driving. The days of your dad putting just two snows on the family truckster to get it moving in a straight line are long gone. Don't get us wrong, getting a car that performs well in snow and ice is still a worthy criteria for car buyers. According to the U.S. Transportation Department, 70% of Americans live in places that get snow and ice. And much of the country has been blasted with arctic air for much of the new year. So let's look at the cars. First, we're highlighting choices for a variety of buyers and price points. Second, we're not just considering snow; we're considering general wintery conditions people will experience driving to work or school. As such, these are all choices with advanced all-wheel-drive systems, usually with "torque-vectoring" systems that not only automatically shunt power front and back, but side to side between the rear axles. Most have extra ground clearance for getting through deep snow, and we prefer those vehicles with more responsive steering, throttles and transmissions that provide a greater sense of vehicle control in slippery conditions.    Acura RDX Read our Acura RDX Review Acura's Super-Handling All-Wheel Drive system was one of the first to offer torque-vectoring, and besides often being touted for its ability to greatly enhanced dry-road handling, its benefits in the slick stuff can be profound. It's actually surprising that Acura hasn't leaned into this capability further by offering more rugged versions of its vehicles.

The Fate of the Furious music video shows how much Demons love donuts

Fri, Mar 3 2017

The new Dodge Demon is leaking into everything related to The Fate of the Furious in the lead-up to both the car and the film's debut in just over a month. The latest teaser involves Demons doing donuts and burnouts in the Get Off music video, with copious amounts of both tire smoke and hip hop to accompany the tire-shredding shenanigans. It also gives us a look at some of the film's other cars. Get Off is a song by Travis Scott, Quavo, and Lil Uzi that's featured on The Fate of the Furious soundtrack, which is out now. The teaser for the music video features a pack of Dodge Challengers - both Demon and non-Demon spec - along with a line of non-SRT related products. From what we can see, the movie will have a Scion FR-S/Toyota 86, a highly modified C2 generation Chevrolet Corvette, and a Mercedes-AMG GT S. In typical over-the-top fashion, the final shot shows a submarine bursting through ice in pursuit of several cars, including a Subaru WRX. We can't see much else as the full music video hasn't been released, but expect a few more teasers once it does. The Fate of the Furious debuts Friday, April 14, just days after the Dodge Demon's debut at the New York Auto Show.
