    Finally got rid of it after 2 years

    I finally sold this thing after 2 years.

    I bought it in November of 2014 with the idea I’d sell it as a RV conversion project. It came from Ada County Sheriff. I gutted it and put it up for sale. I had a lot of interest, some made offers, but when it came down to showing me the $$ they were full of it. A guy came along and said it wasn’t selling because I had it priced too low.

    Okay, sure whatever. So I took his advice and raised the price. Exactly. Zero calls.

    I figured someone would want the 8.3 Cummins if nothing else.

    Thanksgiving 2016 came along and a guy called on it. I figured he would be a time waster like the 157 people before him. We talked price. He wanted me to finance. Before I wasn’t interested, but at this point I just wanted it gone. We set up terms. Signed papers, and away he went. He made the final payment today. I made a few bucks, but it wasn’t worth the hassle.

    Now I need to find something else for Joe to give me grief about!
