It costs $99 bucks to have one checked out at the dealer. Had that done on the car I recently purchased and I am real pleased with the inspection. They went all through the vehicle. Showed me everything from a little scratch to where a small amount of battery acid had spilled. Gave me some peace of mind for sure.

Sorry to hear about your truck wiley, but you were definitly due a new truck.

My truck was totaled out last week. No one was hurt; the truck was parked and backed into by a mideastern person trying to paralell park.

What I want to know is... How do you total someone else's truck while while trying to parallel park???

Always have it checked out and never rely on carfax. I took my wife to look at a car a few months ago. Delaer said it had a clear carfax and no accidents. I looked it over and found the rear quarters had been repaired, the deck lid had been pushed into the quarters and the roof loooked like it had a herd of elephants on it. My first clue was the trim panels in front did not cover the side airbags. The guy wanted to knock off 500.00 for all that.

and what will you be looking for?

Not sure yet. Probably a F-150 XLT, preferably a V-8.

Supposedly, he hit the gas when he should have hit the brake, or so his story is. He hit it centered on the trailer hitch and knocked the front driver's side tire up on the curb.

Yeah RJ, but I could have squeezed another two or three years out of her.

Same thing happened to me, My trusted mechanic found the repairs and told me about it.
