AM I wrong in being disappointed?

We all have that one story at least once in our life. Don't let it dictate your life though. Either sell it are fix it. Main thing is learn from it.

If you fix it look at it as a learning process. How to fix it.

If you sell it, make it a process to tell other's how to learn from your mistake. Show them the problems with it and be honest about it. Learn from it.

We all have been here.

Kind of what I am trying to do. Whether I keep or sell there are lessons to be learned here. I learned that lesson once 20 years ago, guess it was time to learn again!

I respect you for taking responsibility and being honest with a potential buyer, you have real integrity which is more than l can say about the deceptive seller. I always wonder in situations like this what the seller thinks or feels when he reads a thread about himself which casts him as crook? Does he lose any sleep? Feel any guilt? Sorry about your situation

The OP offered it back to the seller at a loss of 5k if Im not mistaken. With an offer like that, anybody with with a character quality that remotely resembles a conscience would know that they just fully got over on the buyer. Me personally, I know that I wouldn't be able to sleep at night. Id be doing everything I could to try and work something out. Thats just me though and why I don't do deals this way. Im sure that there are likely a few others here that would feel horrible about doing another gear head like that let alone another member of this community.

I'm sure that even if the seller is aware of this thread, they likely don't give a crap. It's business as usual and just the way some go through life and will probably continue to do so.



It will take a while for the sting to wear off, but when it does, you'll be ready to make a clear decision on what you're gonna do with it. If you decide to keep it, Im sure you'll have more than a few members subscribed on the build. Myself included.

Good luck Bud! Don't be too hard on yourself, it won't get your truck built.
