and I wonder where they show the odometer. The engine is running, but no mileage is showing. Maybe they have two instrument clusters also to match the interior.

That Mercury must of been a student of Hogwarts! Not only can it change from leather to cloth, but can also change from a Mercury... TO A JEEP!

 

[TollKeeper]

The more I look at that add, the more I scratch my head..

4.7? Thats a Dodge engine side. This would have a 4.6. The jeep pics are from a Jeep Liberty, which never came with a V8. Would have been a 3.7/3.5 v6, or the diesel variant v6.
Look at the rust on the seat arms where it attaches to the floor. I am betting its swiss cheese underneath. And yet, the trailer hitch is rust free.
The aftermarket rear parking sensors/system

Actually good trucks.. If you can keep a tranny in them..

So while looking through Facebook. Came across a few gems. A VERY clean 06 SWB with 76k and a V8! They want $12k. Yeah...no. Sorry, as nice it is, you're not getting double the bluebook value. They also only put 6k on it since buying it, and mentioned purchasing a new vehicle. So either they overspent on said new vehicle, or they got the worst loan they could and trying to recoup the loses before the interest hits. At 12k, I'd rather get a TB SS, or one that's already been clapped out with performance mods.

Then the second beauty was a 2009 Envoy Denali with "26k" original miles, when I wrote to inquire about it. Pretty much 20k asking price. Its like....I love these trucks, I really do. But at 20k, I'd rather just buy like something...newerish....maybe a bit easier on the gas or something "fun" and "exciting".

Someone was crazy enough to throw the I5 from the Colorado in? Now that would be an interesting swap. I've seen 3 TB's near me listed as having the 3.6 V6, and one even put it had a corvette engine in it. Of course....you can clearly see the "4200" logo.


Came across a pretty nice looking 2005 40 mins away from me. But man....its got almost 300k on the body, and the guys asking $5k firm on it. "New" used engine and tranny put in within the last 30-60k, and I get trying to recoup what you put in it. But this guys asking way too much.

I then texted this guy, asking if its rust free (after seeing the obvious spray paint around the fenders). He comes back and says that its just paint rubbed off and there's not a single ounce of rust, and it just needs to be buffed out.

[Mike534x]

Not much of an "idiot" post, BUT $800 for a North Face parts truck is pretty tempting....especially if someone is after the highly sought "amber roof lights" and is able to get them reproduced.

[Mooseman]

That would be tempting for me and make mine into a NF. Despite being a NF, he's asking too much for a parts truck. I wouldn't go higher than $500CAD, so maybe $400USD. It's been on there for 3 weeks. At that mileage, the engine isn't desirable but the tranny might sell.

Those lights are desirable but would there be much demand? The popularity of this platform is evaporating.

 

[Mike534x]

If I had the room, tools and know how. I'd love to pick this up, and make it into a project car. Find one with the upper half in bad shape, with a good frame and swap the bodies and slowly work on the interior. Or get it store it, and swap it onto the Envoy. That way I'd have a one of a kind short wheel base NF V8

 

[Mooseman]

Or it would turn into a lawn ornement. That's what would likely happen with me

 

[Mike534x]

At least you'll be able to say you own a NF!

 

[Mike534x]

Figured you guys may enjoy some more "gems" I've found on the ole Facebook marketplace.

Lady posted a $2500 Trailblazer, not bad oh....OH. A North Face! Again! What's with all these North Face's popping up all of a sudden? Ah....it's a rust bucket. Actually looks like it needs to be taken to the junkyard. Like we were anticipating something of a fixer upper, but damn.

Also attached an image of an Extended North Face near Indy. Lady was also looking to offload this for $2500, has 259k on the odo and she's been driving it around with the CEL. Said it was the cats, camshaft/cps and a faulty fuel sending unit. 2500 firm. I sent her a laughing emoji and said good luck on the sale.

Yeah, that's the "Shit Face" edition...

 

[Mike534x]

I'm jealous they're smoking the good stuff, if I keep coming across more shit I'm gonna need to get shit faced soon.

 

[Mike534x]

So we put a brief pause on shopping. Browsing Facebook and this pops up on the Markerplace feed as I'm scrolling.

I love a good lift, but this is atrocious.

That looks to be a nice example of a NF but, just not $8k nice.....

 

[Mike534x]

Definitely, as nice it is $8k is absurd. At that point, I think looking at a TB SS would be a bit more justifiable....or a Yukon/Tahoe.

 

[Mooseman]

A TBSS just came up on my feed even though it's been on there for 8 weeks. At $20kCAD, no wonder!

And no interior pics

 

[northcreek]

Dealer lots appear to filling up around here with new and used vehicles lately. Maybe the insane prices of used vehicles will adjust soon and beaters won't sell for Lexus money.

 

[Mike534x]

@northcreek It seems like it, 4 of the "big" dealers near me have their used lot jam packed with used/newer cars. Two months ago they didn't have much. But after looking at their website, they're still 8-13k over the blue book/reg market value. Prices are definitely a tad bit lower then at the start of the year that's for sure.

So this came up on my FB feed, despite searching coming to a halt curiosity still gets the best of me....and I had to know "what makes this 2003 Envoy XL so special for $7k?"

Sitting here reading the listing and oh ok its been pretty well maintained that's not too bad! Ahhhh well shit, this will be in the junkyard soon enough. Immediately stopped when his selling point was that he had the undercarriage sprayed by Ziebart. I'm very much half tempted to let him know its a great looking truck, and to check out Eric O's video on why to avoid ever considering having ziebart do any undercoating for their future purchases.

Apart that it's already deleted, only thing wrong I can see is that he says it has tinted windows and picture doesn't. Guess it's a scam? And immaculate condition in Buffalo? Yeah, right!
