What can you do... it just wasn't meant to be. I hate that other party crap.... you should have pulled out your wallet, dug out your drivers license...and when he gives you a weird look and asks what you're doing? You stare at it and say "I'm just checking to see if I was born yesterday."

I was there once and the car I didnt have to have still haunts me in my sleep

Oh well, it's back home with all my cheques still in my pocket. He has my number if the "other interested party" should decide to not want it. The truck is not so special that I just have to have it, and the "just to let you know, I have someone else interested" ploy doesn't work on me. Besides, he wasn't prepared to budge on his asking price. Not actively looking, but who knows what will turn up next.

Sorry to hear Pete that was a long way to go LOOK at a truck you'd think he'd cut you some slack.

**** happens. Thems the chances you take.

I'm glad you're taking it well, You would think the guy would be more reasonable with a live buyer who was standing in front of him.

Plus the truck you are still "stuck with" ain't to bad.

He could be telling the truth about someone else which makes him a man of his word, who can fault him for that?

Stuck with? I wasn't going to get replace that one. Too many creature comforts.

If it was something I was actively looking for, I might have a different perspective. There was no urgency to acquire it. I wasn't looking for a truck, it just happened to show up in my search for "Dodge".

I have a 96 Ram 2wd that I bought new that has only. Been used in the winter twice. And that truck, with the long wheelbase I bet is the same reason. In 1" of snow you could lean on the hood and it would be stuck. Also the owner (s) of that thing must have greatly cared about it, and not put it through the salt and calcium.
Also, many of the old cars still around were bought new by a retiree and they didn't have to or want to go out in bad weather. Estate sales are the best fishing for these gems.

Sorry it didn't pan out for you Pete, at least not so far anyway. On the subject of 96 Ram 2wd, my son just picked this one up Friday at a Cheb dealer in Edmonton. In a world where everyone wants a 4x4 these days there are some real 2wd gems left out there, and this one is no exception.

That's a great looking ride for you son T!

BTW thank you and P for driving in last night for the half century party I was blown away. Critter I expected, you guys were a happy bonus!

I'm sure your son will enjoy the new ride for many years...

A nice neighborhood pub with good atmosphere, good food, and of course good Guinness. We were really glad to be part of the milestone celebration. Btw I hope you were able to walk home afterward, saw you flagging down the waitress and holding up an empty bottle as we were leaving.

I do understand... but these guys didn't just show up without a call in advance.

 

[commando1]

I just called the seller back and told him I changed my mind.

I didn't realize you were from Hamilton, Ontario.

The guy is a bit of a flipper. The one ton was just picked up in Alberta recently.

The one for $15,500 is the same truck? How much did it just sell for?

That one didn't sell. He wouldn't budge on the price. It is still the same ad that I saw.

 

[polara71]

How do you not budge on a price?
