[QUOTE="Ricoman, post: 1351875, member: 31915"] That really SUCKS big time....I know its water under the bridge now,but why wouldnt you have had it checked out by a Mechanic? I bought my 2014 sight unseen,(other than owners photos)..and DIDNT test drive it....paid for it and it arrived on Transporter 2 weeks later...I can tell you I didnt sleep for those 2 weeks,telling myself what a jerk I was to spend that kind of $$ and not actually drive it...BUT...I did Google local shops that did PPI (pre-purchase-inspections),NOT a dealer multi-point inspection,I learned there is a big difference... So,for a $100 and a call to the shop after it was done (99point truck out of 100) did ease a little of the stress,and when it arrived it was exactly as owner and shop stated.... Wrote that more for future buyers.....and I'd say any high end vehicle you buy,even if your an experienced motorhead should be checked out by independent 3rd party..... Glad you got yours running.....nice looking truck..!! Did you go with another SuperCharged Engine..or just a stock 6.2L? [/QUOTE]
