Anyone want to look into a truck for me?

**capetown** · 09-10-2012, 03:51 PM

I have to pick up a dodge or ford 1 ton pretty fast here. Does anyone know what state i should be looking at for best deals? Is there anyone on here that lives in one of those states? If i can get someone to do a little research for me if you do live in one of these states. There will be a finders fee paid. I plan on driving down from Canada to pick something up sooner that later. Thanks guys.

why would you not do like my woman did and just get a quote on line? these dealers will squabble amongst themselves, and then you come just go down and buy it.

this is a common thing now, as many do not like to have to go to a dealership and fight over price.

100 percent and thats what i plan on doing. I just am looking for base prices and such to start. Plus i really need to get help on best place to buy and such. Example. I know right now in my home town a fully loaded F350 is gonna cost me 78 grand. I always been told how much better prices can be down there but am having a hard time to find anything to prove this online. I want to talk to the boys in these areas looking at the truck page of their local paper right now.

Lol. I have had good success on eBay. Never been screwed. Guess there is that chance. I have always flown there and then paid with a check. If it is bad, I would have just flown back home. Idk

if you want one in good condition i would look in the south. we dont have snow or salt or any of that so rust is limited. expec to find high miles though

I have bought and sold vehicles on eBay. Like I said never had a problem yet. Hopefully I won't.

Agree with EBay. I've bought quite a few trucks on EBay for snow plowing. Buy from a reputable seller/dealer and have the truck checked out by a professional prior to closing the deal.
