I really like this truck. Love the fact its got a 308 with Twin H and AC under the hood. This baby will really haul. Even like the removable Texaco stickers. Interior looks nice tu-tone ain't bad and BIN is good for basically turn-key.

Nice truck.

This is a really good deal no doubt about it. When I get a truck I am going to put a 308 under then hood. Probably could not do the work for the price of this truck.

You're probably right. Better to buy one already done to a point that is acceptable to you.

This guy had no reserve guess he was hoping a bidding war would drive it up or it just wants to get rid of it. Either way looks like some one will get a really good deal. (Mentally trying to figure out how to hide another vehicle)

Wow, 2 bids and it's at $14k. Good for the seller. The trick to hiding vehicles is having the places to put them. Much easier to do when you have land and places on it that the wife doesn't go. Laughing

I'll hide it in Texas for you. And will occasionally start it, run it, and keep the carbon from building up in it. All for a very small fee.

That might work. I like this truck. All the work is done I can just drive it.

And just one easy payment! None of that constant nickel and diming you at the parts store. What am I saying!? You can never be nickel and dimed in Canada! what a perk! and that climate! Never a sunburn!

On another note. I also want to remind you that my car port is a rust-free environment.

I am putting you down as the location of my new Hudson ranch. Where the Hudsons roam freely without a care in the world. And no they are not hiding they are just resting thats all.

Several of my Hudsons runs ok, but seem to smoke a bit more than modern cars. I really fell bad about it, and would like to rectify this problem. Do you know where I can buy some off-setting carbon credits? Or if I buy a Prius for each Hudson I own, would that be an equitable solution?

No Jim that would not be enough. If you can turn off all the lights in your house and stop buying that fancy bottled water maybe you could get there. It takes time and commitment. I know you have it in you.

I don't have quite the carbon footprint of Al Gore, but I thought he buys his credits in Canada somewhere. That allows him to Jet around the world, conscience free. Since I only want to Hornet around the county, I'm looking for a cheaper deal. Thought you might be in the know. And Speaking of bottled water, I see a big opportunity for some enterprising Canadians to bottle up some of that million year old ice as it melts. It's gotta go somewhere, and it might as well go to profit! And before Canada becomes a tropical paradise, wouldn't a purchase of a few million acres of sub-artic land be a great investment?

Yes it would. Consider this it has been warm here for the last 6 weeks. Usually the coldest time of winter. But no you can walk outside in your t-shirt. Every year its getting warmer here. Winter in about 3 weeks now. When I was a kid winter here was 6 months. It did not start thawing here until April and getting warm until May. Winter is basically done now. Its good and its also scary we are not producing enough snow for long enough in winter to replenish the lakes and rivers.

But Hudsons are so pro green its not funny. Have you recycled a car today. Thats my moto.
