Is this your ad on Craig's list?

I hope you are being honest with people when they call. Your ad could be a little misleading...[sm=nono.gif] [sm=bustedsign.gif]

Hmmm, the pictures are the same.

Seriously. You need to tell people your truck needs a new engine.

Why not just drop in a used engine?

I didn't notice the date differences. I am glad you are being honets about the truck. There are just so many people out there that would actually do such a thing. You have to admit though that if you were to run across your post about the truck being screwed up, then checked for it on Craig's List to find out how much you were asking for it, and then see how it was advertised, you would think the same thing as well. Props to you for not being one of the "bad guys".

Do you have another car do drive? If not, wouldnt it be cheaper to drop a used motor in?
