Engine starts up and runs strong and smooth as you would expect.  4.0L V6 engine with automatic transmission and 4-wheel drive.  Only 12k miles.  No engine knocking, smoking, or dripping leaks. Shifts into and through all gears smoothly as it should.  Has powerful acceleration and cruises at highway speed.  Has been fleet serviced since new.  Recent Service: new battery, all fluids have been changed.  Extended Warranty covers drive train components only.

Exterior     

Paint has all of its shine and glistens in the sun as you can see.  This was a fleet/municipal vehicle and as such, does have some minor physical blemishes.  There are nicks, chips, scratches, dings, and other minor blemishes in a few spots around the body.  There is a scratch on the rear right side door and some scuffs on the front left side bumper edge.  There is some paintwork on the doors and tailgate where decals were removed.  Overall nice looking truck as you can see.  Please keep in mind this is not new but still a nice low mileage specimen.   

Interior

Interior is in very good condition with minimal wear.  There may be a few tiny holes drilled in some of the console panels where electronics were mounted.  Seats and floor are in like-new condition with no rips or significant wear.  A/C blows cold.  Radio and other devices work fine as they should.  SRS light is on due to a faulty seat track sensor.  The RSC light periodically comes on if starting up on uneven terrain.  This pertains to the anti-roll feature that applies braking if you corner too hard.  It doesn't affect performance of vehicle and has only come on a few times.  No evidence or smoking or pets.  Fresh and clean inside.   

Wheels and Tires

·  Tires have approximately 50%+ tread remaining.  Full set of factory alloy rims. 

I have test driven approximately 200 miles and assessed the overall condition of the vehicle to the best of my ability.  Known defects have been noted, but there may be repairs required and additional defects beyond what is listed.  Please keep in mind this is a salvage/rebuilt vehicle with previous flood damage history.  As I recommend to all my customers, you should have your mechanic look over any newly purchased vehicle before extensive use.  I have tried to list as many details about this vehicle as I can, including known defects.  Please keep in mind this was a gov't vehicle and may have greater wear and tear than normal vehicle.  There may be deficiencies that I am not aware of so buyers are encouraged to inspect in person.  If you are local I encourage and welcome you to come down and check out the truck for yourself or have an independent inspection completed PRIOR to bidding.  There will be no price adjustments or sale cancellations for failure to do so.  IT IS THE BUYERS RESPONSIBILITY TO ASK QUESTIONS AND/OR INSPECT THE VEHICLE BEFORE BIDDING AND PURCHASE.  FAILURE OF THE BUYER TO DO SO DOES NOT CONSTITUTE NON-DISCLOSURE OF DEFECTS ON THE SELLERS PART.  I am happy to answer any questions so feel free to e-mail me or call.
