Truck is Sold!

After a week of posting  the truck for sale in this blog, we got a call  of an interested buyer.  He asked my husband about the details and told us that he was coming over the weekend to see it.  We waited but he did not come.  A few days later, a passer by  who lives  close to our place stopped by, knocked on our door and asked  about it.  Hubby talked to him for a while, he  test drove it around the neighborhood, he offered half the price of what we are asking for and  hubby said yes.  I was a bit disappointed that hubby did not bargain back but glad that it was   got sold out.

Here's my daughter when we were cleaning out the truck.
My husband spent  around almost $800 for that truck a couple of months ago so the new owner  is lucky.  At least now, I don't have to pay for its insurance anymore. Besides, it was still better from the price that the  garage where we bought our  van is willing to pay us.  When they told us that they will give us $500 for it, hubby and I said that we will just sell it ourselves.  So glad to see it go.

glad you finally sold your truck Rose, and very true, you now could save the money on insurance from it before.

I had one similar to that one a few years ago. The people that came to buy it were so insulting with their offers, we finally donated it to the Southeaster Guide Dogs. I figured if I was not going to get anything for it I could at least do some good with it.

We as ladies really know more about bargaining than men. LOL. But at least now you don't need to spend more just for the insurance of your truck.

My teenage son would have loved to buy it. Wish you were closer.

Gosh you can't find any car around here for less than $3K! I would love to be able to get a truck for that amount of money. It is insulting when others offer so little for a vehicle.
