New and Used vehicle prices have gone totally bonkers. It's not quite as bad here but in the US it's gone nuts. Used selling as much as new, Dealers asking over MSRP, forcing people to take the financing from them and cannot pay it off early, forcing to take accessories and extras. And OEMs are openly saying that they will be keeping supplies low to keep prices high. Nowadays, if you get a new truck at MSRP, consider yourself lucky. Glad I got my truck when I did because if I would have waited, I would have been told to bend over without lube.

That is insane, when I traded my 07 Envoy Denali with 120K and no issues 3 years ago I got $4,500 for it and I was okay with that because CL and others were jammed with them and nobody was buying....who knew?

So doors are $12k but the rest of it is free? I don't get it. Well, actually nobody will get it for that price.

Come to think , I might know what's going on. CL has started to charge for listing certain things like RVs, vehicles,etc.
So maybe Prince Valiant is trying to skirt the fee and in the process has confused any potential buyers with his "clever" ad.

Now I feel cheated...:duh: The 2020 toyota rice burner I purchased two years ago brand new Carvano purchased last month from me for only three thousand more than I paid for it. :celebrate: So the mrs. drove it for 24 months and made money on it. And she drove it 25k miles. I know it will never happen again, but it sure is sweet.

:twocents: + $2999.98. :2thumbsup:

Just when you think that you have found the ultimate CL moron, a new contender challenges...

Chevrolet says that the LS trim means "luxury sport."
General Motors sells this same basic SUV as
the GMC Envoy,
Buick Rendezvous,
Saab 9-7X and
Isuzu Ascender,
but if you want the hot-rod version,
you have to get the TrailBlazer.
Engine: 4.2 L 6-cylinder

Transmission: 4-speed automatic
Towing : 5,400 lbs
Tire : P245/65R17
Horsepower: 395 hp
120k mile
never shovel snow in winter
just drive right through no matter how high the snow is

it has STAINLESS SIDE STEP BAR and
towing hitch which allow you to hook up trailer to carry long stuff (uhaul only charge $14 to rent a trailer)

Told ya Scotty had a lot of followers / subs...

Hope he's not driving that on the street with slicks. I see he's got a full cage in it, too.
Since he's (apparently) converted it to a track car, I wonder why he even posted mileage on it.

Not a truck, but it is a GM product... I remember these and thought they were nice, back in the day. But this guy's delusional... down to the Club-like device he's got attached to the steering wheel (last two pics).

Delusional is right.
Needs some attention to restore but this one is truly a gem.
Riiiiiight! Give it to some kid to turn it into a donk.

Looking at the signage on the side of the guy's house tells you everything that you need to know, "delusional" might be a complement.
That thing is screaming $200/ Demo Derby....

If it had the Turbo6 option, than it would be worth it. But the QuadraJunk 305? Nope!

Dare we ask what you were actually searching for when you tripped over that one? :wink:
Question actually is... Do we really want to know? LOL
