being that cheap at copleys i would give it a good looking over. i looked at one around the same price a few years ago, it was a rust bucket. i offered 7k less and he agreed but i still walked away. not saying he sells crap he has some pristine trucks, just beware of the cheaper ones.

For sure. I bought my truck at Copley and overall it's quite good. They may sell good trucks (or atleast have that reputation), but they're still defenders and you need to give them a good thorough going over.

I'd go down and take a look at it if you're serious. Keith and Stewart are really great guys. Just make sure you go in and say hi. You could be out in the lot crawling all over the trucks and they'll just leave you be. Completely non pressure.

You also might want to shoot them an email about it. Keith probably has a bunch more pictures he can send your way.

You can kinda tell by the way they write up the truck. It tells how well they think of it.

It sounds like she has had a rough life, wrecked then burned.  I would certainly give that a complete going over before I went to far on it.  Like someone else pointed out there are better deals out there on D90's

Another thing (sorry!) The two of them are not mechanically inclined in any way. They know all about history and differences between years, but not much of a clue in terms of mechanicals.

They have all their trucks gone over at Cityside Garage and, if it's already been there, he'll give you everything they did to it (including prices).

I happen to have the low down on that truck ( I inquired too), feel free to P.M. me if interested... it's had a hard life.

No problem :D That particular one has had a rough life from the description. I have read all of their LR descriptions and meant it as a general statement though.  You can kinda sense what they feel about each one, but of course the $$ they want explains it too!
