I have driven this quite a bit since buying itand it starts easy and runs great.I believe that all the lights, orn, ipers, eater, peedometer and odometer still work.It has strong power brakes and smooth power steering. I shifts firm like it is supposed to.It does not shimmy or wonder on the road. Government rigs are generally well maintainedand with only 031,348 miles showing on the odometer there probably isn't much wear on the suspension parts etc. The motor runs strong with no abnormal sounds or smoking. I can park it on my drive way with no fear of oil or anti freeze leakage. I'm not saying that you can white glove the underside but for instance I took it for a drive this afternoon, rought it home and parked it. Six hours later there wasn't a drop of anything on my concrete driveway whereI parked it. All the glass is good, he doors lock and the tires are a good set of 285/75/16s with about half wear left. I had the seat rebuilt andrecovered with a nice earth toned quality fabric. The original wasold hot sticky vinyl and was cracked pretty bad. This truck is ready to use. It makes a good 2nd truck and really gets attention at the little localcar shows.It very practical, ough, ets good mpg and can't be disabled by electro magnetic fields.( as per bug out truck) Best thing is there is no conveniencegadgetry, ir bag service lights, SC, PM, 2s, AS, AF, nock sensors, bs,etc. etc. etc.to be replaced and repaired constantly draining your wallet.

I am going to try to put a You tube video together before the auction is over so you can take a virtual ride in the truck and hear it running shifting etc. As far as payment goes, will do cash in person if meeting in the lobby of my bank, ersonal check once cleared, ashiers check once clearedor total amount through Pay Pal if you pay the fee that Pay Pal charges for the transaction.
