Sold my Baby

Post by markiver54 » Fri Oct 16, 2020 9:38 pm

Came down from the mountain cabin yesterday to meet with a fellow coming from TN.
He came today and bought my one owner `99 Ford Lightning. I'm a bit bummed tonite that she's gone. Sad, because I've owned her since new. Only 30K miles and showroom shape....oh well...time to move on. :cry:

Thank you Gene! Was very hard to let go of. I'll get over it....eventually.
Now looking for a late model Toyota 4-Runner.

I think the Toyota will be a much better vehicle. You did the right thing.

Sounds pretty close Mark. Good way to check it out though is with Carfax.
