Re: Project Craigslist Karma into a family vehicle

To update this thread, I cleaned the interior a but more, and kept it on Craigslist asking $4000 just to see if I'd get any hits. The truck was running great, was very much enjoying it, but after lifting a baby seat in and out of the extended cab a few times, I realized it just wasn't going to be practical on our 3 big 1000 mile road trips this winter. Someone called about the truck, came to see it and liked it, but sure enough on the test ride, he had the windows down listening to stuff and I was cold, so I reached over to turn on the heat and got nothing. He didnt notice, and after he left to come back the next day with cash, I had to run to advance and get a new blower motor. After that was done, he came back the next day and bought it for $3500. With a purchase price of $1200, $200 for a windshield, $50 for new wheels and tires, -$210 for selling 3 wheels, plus $20 for a blower motor, $20 for tbi rebuild kit, $40 for spare tire carrier, $50 for IAC, I think I did alright on that Craigslist flip. Now I'm shopping for a Tahoe for my next flip with my $2200 profit.
