they probably cant sell it and just want to get rid of the damn thing and dont want to take it to auction. notice how it says there's no warranty because its an "auction vehicle". i wouldnt be surprised if they're hiding something.

The hail damage is visible on the hood. If if has that much on the hood, then the roof and fenders would have hail damage as well. Hail damage on a vehicle can quickly depreciate the value.

if you look at the CAI, it goes to the front of the engine, rather than the side (where the 3.9/5.9's go)... that with the fact it has a 5 sppeed and has V8 badges, makes mes thinks it is a 4.7
