Re: Guys fast question .

Don't be so sure you're buying it before you've looked at it.That can be the worst mistake.

Re: Guys fast question .

i'd look over any shortbed real good to make sure it's a true shorty and not a hacked and wacked longbed//check real good for rust issues here in florida it's more the norm,also check vin and title match

Re: Guys fast question .

even if you check the spid make sure you look at the frame.. I just bought one with a 6ft VIN but the frame had been changed out for a cut longbed one.. Didnt notice it till I got home.. Oh well not a big deal since i am air riding mine anyway.. . just be careful and look it over well.. make sure its what you want.

Re: Guys fast question .

It's only been a year since it ran? Wow, I'd be happy if that was the case at my house.

Issues with E85 gasoline is that it deteriorates over time, which makes stuff like StaBil even more of a necessity. Varnish forms as gasoline sets, but beyond that you don't know how well it ran, when it ran.
