Low mileage FG with flatbed in TX.

I'd exercise caution with this purchase. This may be one of those "Send a deposit to hold the vehicle" scams.

This is supposed to be a Texas vehicle, but it's advertised only in Colorado, and not on any Craigslist in Texas I could find. The asking price is at least $5000 lower than other comparable vehicles. There's no phone number, only an anonymous email address.

On the other hand, it could be legit. It pays to be suspicious of this sort of ad.

Perfect....

Kerry... That's an awsome find! I just wish I was ready to pull the trigger on a FG.... I need a few more months of saving cash.

Head's Up....

Good Call & Heads Up Haven....

Here's the reply for the seller and additional Info:

We are in San Antonio, Texas, my contact number is 210-667-9599 in the office and 210-336-9271 cellular. I have this listed in the Rockies because we have received numerous calls over the years from that region for this style of truck.

A low mileage 4x4 is fairly hard to find, so we advertise where the market tells us.

I should have it on my website, www.lonestartruck-equipment.com shortly.

I hope to hear from you soon.

I too was suspicious of the ad initially, especially when I couldn't find the vehicle on a Texas craigslist. Howerer, the reply seems legit.

This truck sounds sweet.... I wish I could swing it at the moment. Here's more info from the salesman:

There are no issues with the truck, it is in the condition you would expect of a truck with so low of miles. We repainted the bed a gloss black, just for looks. The truck is still covered by its factory 5 yr/175,000 mile warranty that goes through February 27, 2012.

There is no charge to transfer the warranty to you, the new buyer. If you are familiar with Mitsubishi Fuso, you know that the 5 year warranty covers engine, transmission, transfer case, drive lines, both differentials, starter, alternator, oil/fuel/water pump, turbo and injectors.

Power windows, power door locks, and an exhaust brake are included on every truck, this one also has A/C, chrome style wheel covers, a heavy duty floor mat and a CD player.

When you are ready, if the truck is still available, we cover the cost of the flight to San Antonio and will pick you up from the airport or your local hotel. We are a family owned business established in 1995. What line of work are you in?

I look forward to hearing from you in future.
