HERE WE HAVE A 3/4 TON, 2500 SERIES, 1997 CHEVY SUBURBAN LT, 4 WHEEL DRIVE, POWER BY THE TURBO DIESEL, WITH JUST 162K MILES! PLEASE READ MY DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY, AS WELL AS THE TYPE BELOW AND MY PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS! FIRST OFF, MECHANICALLY THIS TRUCK RUNS VERY STRONG AND DOES NOT HAVE ANY MAJOR DRIVABILITY ISSUES AT ALL! THE MOTOR STARTS PRETTY EASY HOT OR COLD, NO REAL HARD STARTS EVEN THE COLDEST MORNINGS TO DATE, AND IT RUNS STRONG AND SMOOTH! THE TRANNY SHIFTS RIGHT ON POINT! IT HAS NO SERVICE LIGHTS ON, NO FLUID OR EXHAUST LEAKS! (THIS DOES NOT MEAN EVERYTHING IS SHINY NEW) IT MEANS THERE ARE NO CURRENT FLUID LEAKS! THE 4X4 WORKS WELL! 4 DECENT TIRES ALL AROUND! IT TRAVELS WELL, WITH NO MAJOR SHAKES OR VIBRATIONS! YES ITS A 97 TRUCK, BUT OVERALL IT RUNS AND DRIVES REALLY WELL! THE THINGS I HAVE NOTICED ARE THE REAR WIPER DOES NOT WORK, THE DRIVERS POWER SEAT WORKS WHEN EMPTY BUT DOES NOT MOVE WHILE YOU ARE SEATED(?), THE RADIO IS MISSING, ALL WINDOWS WORK BUT DRIVERS COCKS SIDEWAYS A BIT AT THE TOP AND THERE IS A SECTION OF CARPET (SQUARE) CUT OUT OF REAR CARGO AREA. THIS DOES NOT MEAN THERE IS NO CHANCE THAT YOU WILL FIND SOMETHING THAT I DID NOT, THOSE ARE JUST THE THINGS THAT I DID NOTICE. ALL OTHER OPTIONS SEEMED TO WORK WELL INCLUDING POWER LOCKS, CRUISE, AND A/C! SO YOU HAVE A FANTASTIC RUNNING 3/4 TON DIESEL WITH A FEW MINOR AREAS THAT NEED SOME TLC! NOW THE EXTERIOR. JET BLACK IN COLOR AND PRETTY SOLID OVERALL, BEING A 13 YEAR OLD TRUCK! I HAVE PUT SOME PICS IN OF THE AREAS THAT SEEMED TO BE NOTEWORTHY IMPERFECTIONS FOR A TRUCK THIS AGE AND MILEAGE! THE LOWERS OF THE DOORS HAVE SOME FLAKING PAINT AND SURFACE STUFF COMING OUT, THE FRONT OF THE HOOD IS BLEMISHED, THE REAR BUMPER HAD BEEN PUSHED IN AND DENTED THE CORNER OF THE REAR QUARTER, AND OTHERWISE JUST MINOR STUFF THAT SHOULD BE EXPECTED! I HAVE INCLUDED PICS OF ANYTHING I THOUGHT NEEDED TO BE MENTIONED! THE REAR BUMPER NOW IS A BRAND NEW ONE! ALTHOUGH THE TRUCK HAS A GOOD LOOK OVERALL FOR A 97, I WOULD VENTURE TO SAY TO ALL BIDDERS, IT LOOKS BETTER HERE IN THE PICS, THEN IT DOES IN PERSON, HOWEVER IT IS NOT A BAD LOOKING TRUCK, NOR IS IT IN BAD SHAPE, JUST ALOT OF TIMES THEY SHOW VERY WELL IN PICTURES! THE UNDERCARRIAGE IS VERY SOLID, WITH NO RUST ISSUES! ( I REPEAT, ISSUES! IT DOES OF COURSE HAVE SURFACE STUFF ON BRACKETS AND WHATNOT, BUT NO RUST ISSUES!) CLEAN AND SOLID! THE INTERIOR HAS A PULL ON THE EDGE OF THE DRIVERS SEAT, THE REAR CARPET THAT WAS MENTIONED EARLIER ON, OTHERWISE IT IS ALL TOGETHER! NOT OVERLY WORN, NO MORE TEARS OR HEAVY CRACKING, BUT CERTAINLY SOME WEAR! NICE LOOKING AND FUNCTIONAL OVERALL! SO AS AN OVERALL DESCRIPTION: THIS IS A REALLY GOOD RUNNING 3/4 TON, TURBO DIESEL SUBURBAN, THAT HAS SOME EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR COSMETIC IMPERFECTIONS, AND A FEW OPTIONS THAT MAY NEED SOME TLC, BUT THE TRUCK IS A VERY SOLID FOUNDATION MECHANICALLY TO WORK OFF OF, AND IS CERTAINLY WORTH TOUCHING IT UP A BIT! THE WAY THIS TRUCK RUNS AND DRIVES SHOWS ME THAT IT HAS MANY MORE GOOD YEARS AND MILES OF SERVICE LEFT! BID WITH CONFIDENCE! QUESTIONS CALL, 401-429-9675! THANK YOU AND GOOD LUCK!                                          ATTN: THE ABOVE DESCRIPTION DOES NOT MEAN THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN 100% SERVICED DIRECTLY BEFORE PICKUP, OR THAT IT HAS ALL BRAND NEW PARTS THROUGHOUT, OR THAT IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR YOU TO SPEND EVEN $1 TO MAKE IT PERFECT! WE DO OUR BEST TO DISCLOSE ANY MAJOR MECHANICAL DEFECTS, AND MINOR ONES AS WELL, WITHIN REASON! THE AVERAGE VEHICLE HAS 4000 MOVING PARTS! EVEN THE MOST WELL INTENTIONED DEALER COULD MISS SOMETHING SUCH AS A RADIO PRE-SET BUTTON NOT WORKING OR LIGHTING UP, A POWER MIRROR MOVING ONLY 3 WAYS OUT OF 4, OR EVEN A SHIMMIE AT 80 MPH AS WE MAY NOT HAVE GONE THAT FAST! WE DO A THOROUGH VISUAL INSPECTION, AS WELL AS A THOROUGH TEST DRIVE BEFORE DESCRIBING AND LISTING! WE ALSO HAVE A STATE INSPECTION DONE ON EVERY VEHICLE BEFORE IT LEAVES OUR LOT, REGARDLESS WHAT STATE YOU LIVE IN! AS THESE ARE PRE-OWNED CARS, WE ALSO ARE NOT ABLE TO TELL YOU IF A POWER WINDOW MAY MALFUNCTION IN 6 WEEKS, OR IF THE STARTER IS GOING TO GO IN 3 MONTHS, AS YOU WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO TELL ME SUCH INFORMATION, IF I WAS PURCHASING YOUR VEHICLE! THEREFORE IF WE MISS A SUNVISOR THAT DOES NOT CLICK IN CORRECTLY, OR A RADIO PRE-SET BUTTON THAT DOES NOT LIGHT UP AT NIGHT, IT DOES NOT MEAN WE WERE DECEITFUL OR THAT WE SOLD A BAD CAR! IT MEANS WE MISSED IT, AND THAT YOU PURCHASED A PRE-OWNED CAR, OFTEN TIME 7 TO 10 YEARS OLD, WITH 60 TO 125K MILES! WE CAN PROMISE YOU THAT AT THE TIME OF DELIVERY, YOUR VEHICLE WILL BE IN VERY GOOD RUNNING CONDITION, HAVE A STRONG, SMOOTH, QUIET RUNNING MOTOR, A GOOD TRANSMISSION, NO MAJOR MECHANICAL DEFECTS UNLESS OTHERWISE DISCLOSED, IT WILL BE CLEAN, PRESENTABLE, HAVE CLEAN OIL AND TOPPED OFF FLUIDS, AND THAT THE OVERALL DRIVABILITY, (MOTOR, TRANNY, 4X4, BRAKES, POWER STEERING, NO SUSPENSION OR FRONT END RATTLES THAT ARE OUT OF THE ORDINARY, AND JUST A GENERAL GOOD RUNNING, NICE RIDING CAR, WITH NO DRIVABILITY ISSUES!) THE SAME LAWS OF EXPECTATIONS SHOULD STAND FOR COSMETICS! WE WILL DISCLOSE ANY BODY RUST, LARGE DENTS, SCRATCHES OR BLEMISHES, WHILE VERY MINOR, AVERAGE IMPERFECTIONS SHOULD BE EXPECTED TO COINCIDE WITH THE YEAR AND MILEAGE OF THE VEHICLE YOU PURCHASED! WE ASK ONLY THAT YOU HAVE REASONABLE EXPECTATIONS, THAT GO ALONG WITH THE YEAR AND MILES! WE WILL DO ALL WE CAN TO BE ACCURATE, AND WE ALSO DO NOT SELL VEHICLES THAT DO NOT MEET CERTAIN QUALITY STANDARDS, WHICH WE FEEL ARE VERY HIGH, COMPARED WITH 99.9% OF THE SELLERS OUT THERE! SO WE DO OUR JOB, YOU HAVE REASONABLE EXPECTATIONS, AND I CAN PROMISE YOU HAVE A PLEASANT, EASY, SMOOTH TRANSACTION! AS STATED ABOVE, BECAUSE WE CAN ONLY CONTROL THE CONDITION OF THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME WE SELL IT TO YOU, WE CAN NOT PREDICT THE FUTURE, YOU MAY INSPECT YOUR PURCHASE, AND TEST DRIVE IT, FOR AS LONG AS YOU WISH, WITHIN REASON! ONCE YOU HAVE DONE THAT AND YOU FEEL AS THOUGH YOU LOVE THE VEHICLE, AND THAT IT HAS BEEN WELL DESCRIBED, AND YOU ARE READY TO MOVE FORWARD WITH YOUR PURCHASE, WE WILL ENTER MY OFFICE, EXCHANGE FEEDBACK, AND FINISH THE PAPERWORK. WE WILL NO LONGER BE HELD HOSTAGE, AND EXTORTED FOR MONEY, WITH THE THREAT OF NEGATIVE FEEDBACK, OVER A RADIO BUTTON, OR A SUNVISOR CLIP. 6 WEEKS AFTER YOU LEAVE OUR LOT WITH THE VEHICLE WE SOLD YOU, IN THE "AS DESCRIBED CONDITION"! WE CAN NOT, AND WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR EVERY ONE OF THE THE 4000 MOVING PARTS IN THE 10 YEAR OLD VEHICLES WE SELL, THAT ARE IN PERFECT, AS DESCRIBED CONDITION, UPON PICKUP, WITH THE THREAT OF NEGATIVE FEEDBACK! AS YOU CAN SEE BY MY FEEDBACK, WE SELL VERY HIGH QUALITY VEHICLES, AND 99% OF OUR BUYERS HAVE FELT THEY WERE AS DESCRIBED, OR BETTER THEN DESCRIBED! BID WITH 100% CONFIDENCE! NOW MOST IMPORTANTLY, THIS IS A VERY SIMPLE REQUEST----IF YOU DO NOT PLAN ON PURCHASING THIS CAR, DO NOT BID! IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY THAT YOU ARE BIDDING--DO NOT BID!  IF YOU HAVE NOT CHECKED THE COST OF TRANSPORTATION TO GET YOUR VEHICLE--DO NOT BID! IF YOU HAVE NOT DISCUSSED THIS WITH YOUR SIGNIFICANT OTHER--DO NOT BID! IF YOU HAVE ANY PERSONEL ISSUES THAT ARE ON THE VERGE OF BREAKING--DO NOT BID!! IF YOUR 6 YEAR OLD CHILD IS STANDING NEXT TO THE COMPUTER IN THE LAST 30 SECONDS OF MY AUCTION, PLEASE BE SURE THEY DO NOT TRIP AND HIT THE "BID" BUTTON BY MISTAKE! IF YOUR DOG IS AT THE VETS AND MAY PASS TOMORROW---DO NOT BID!! AND SO ON AND SO ON! LOL!! BUT SERIOUSLY FOLKS, THIS IS MY LIVELIHOOD SO IT IS VERY COSTLY AND TIME CONSUMING WHEN YOU WIN AND DO NOT PAY, SO VERY SIMPLE, ONLY BID IF YOU PLAN ON ACTUALLY BUYING IT! THANKS AND GOOD LUCK!!~!!~  I DO NOT MEAN TO COME ACCROSS HARSH I HAVE JUST HAD A LOT OF NON-PAYERS LATELY, AND ALOT OF CALLS SAYING THE #4 PRE-SET BUTTON STOPPED WORKING, SEND ME A NEW RADIO, 6 WEEKS AFTER I SELL A 99 CAR WITH 150K MILES, BEFORE I SEND MY FEEDBACK! THINGS AS SUCH HAVE CAUSED ME TO NEED TO PUT ALL THIS TYPE IN, SORRY AND GOOD LUCK!
