Congrats, but it would seem that you never looked at the car in person or test drove it first???

pretty much all agreed on description (via a car forum) and photos - the only thing left for me to do was do a quick test drive which I did. Everything worked out perfectly. So in part nearly a 'faith' buy but no issues at all wink

Hmm... the day I buy a pickup, it'll definitely be a 3500HD dually. Silverado though... with a hard top on the flat bed and a good few inches raised smile

Dunno - seems a fair bit bigger than my old Lightning... that being said as the Ram is a 4*4 I guess that the extra hight distorts perspective a little

nah previous owner put a lovely stainless system on it - waaaay too nice to waste, so a couple of zorst cut-outs may well find their way on there for the best of both worlds wink
