[QUOTE="JMIB99, post: 1404125, member: 37253"] A lot of the local dealerships by me send their Raptors to auction when they can't get their asking price after a few months. To many of them take in trades or buy from auctions without knowing what to look for. They usually have no idea what they're getting into. They just see 'Raptor' and they think they are going to make bank. Everytime I go to a dealership they are amazed when I roll underneath. Once I was looking at a 2011 Screw with 62k miles. It was priced in the low to mid $30k's and I couldn't figure out why it wasn't selling. I went to look at it and I knew why no one was touching it. The whole undercarriage was rusted out. The shocks were all rusted and leaking. The body was already rotting. And, they did a terrible job detailing it. I found mud caked up in all the normal places you'd expect to find it. I even made the salesperson get under there with me. I offered them $25k out the door and they said they were in it for way more than that. I said good luck and fast forward a few weeks, it got sent to auction. [/QUOTE]
