http://www.bechtelautosales.com/inventory.htm- (Sorry red 01 dakota at bottom of first page)

Test drove this bad *** yesterday, we are working on the numbers now. Listed at $9,995. Got him to drop to 8,995 in the first 15 minutes. Hoping to get him down to $7,995 when all said and done.

Truck is all original except for a new PS pump and lines they just put in a new front windshield, as dealer was driving the truck and took on a rock to the glass and cracked it.

The engine is STRONG and the trans shifts smooth from what I could tell. Did a bunch of figure 8s and steering all seems tight, no movement or noises while doing the figure 8s.

Transfer case seems to work and engage the 4x4.

It does have the rust on the frame and axles, but not really anymore than my 01 1500 I have now. The body is in good shape no rust.

Fingers crossed!

Brad

Waiting for them to call! They were going to steam clean the engine bay again for me as the mechanic who replaced the PS pump, never cleaned up the mess from the old one going. Idiot! Which is nice for me, I get to use that against them and lower the price more!!!!
