2006 Z71-For sale 70k miles

2200 hours kind of seems like a lot of idling time. Or really slow trips. I know you mentioned short trips must have just been around town. Just basing this off my truck (ram) 135k miles and a little over 3,000 hours total.

The others who may or may not have offered them that much probably didn't look it over as closely as you. I applaud you for looking it over very well.

I think you are spot on at 9k. The only part that bothers me is that paint... I hate that color.

I like either silver, black or white or pewter.

70,000 miles / 2,200 hrs = 31.81MpH

The son/seller, said the 76 year old father drove it back and forth to the grocery store and to visit friends in a retirement community. Then was pulled in garage.

The seller texted me that he says the engine and transmission are the heart of the vehicle and the concerns/problems I showed and pointed out to him are minor and he knows what he has and it's value. That tells me I am still in his head and he did not call any of the so called "$10k to $13k" offers, he had already turned down. I texted back that whoever checks it out and finds what I found will walk away at his price and he may sell to a rube that does not know what is going on. I also reminded him that right at that moment he still has the ad up saying there are no scratches. I asked how he sleeps at night? I then reminded him that I showed him to his face, all of the concerns and why. My offer of $9k is as high as I go.

Those are DIC readout engine hours. Not just idle time.

Hopefully he comes to his senses and works a deal with you. Nice looking ride.

Ever since I asked how he sleeps at night, there has been no contact and the ad is still up and is still at $15k and still says no scratches. A rust free truck like that should have been sold by now.
