Bought this in 2009 with 100k on it. Was used as tow vehicle for RV previously - I used as daily driver. It has been a champ with just normal servicing although a biggie was $1,000 worth of points, plugs, distributor, fluids, coolant etc. about 2 years ago. Paint was original except for both front and back gold trim. Front was redone before I got it and I had rear done after a small fender bender. Everything was in order with no dash lights lit up. Wish I had taken picture of the odometer. V6 4X2

A key point I think is the radio / dash buttons were all still white and clear. Not Tahoe, Yukon, Acadia, Enclave A/C controls that look crappy when they start to rub off.

Asked $4,995 for it and sold it to first guy who looked at it for $4,600 within 2 hours of posting. He has been looking at trucks for his son and as my friend said "If he was shopping $5k trucks beat all to heck and then he saw the condition of that Ford then it was an easy sell."

Not exactly an all star cast of products but the White Wax did its job. No need for my DA for this project.
 
It always amazes me people don't understand the power of shine. Good job.
 
Truck looks great but don't add you did points on it, people will be confused👈

-Correct on points.....it was not in ad....nor sure why I slipped it in post other than haste.

-My bad. Speed shine Bottle is Megs 34. That bottle is over 5 years old and best one I have. Thing will not die.

Bottle was probably stored near a window and the sun discolored the bottle.
 
Did our car last October prior to getting rid of it. Compound, polish, Uber Ceramic + Pinnacle souveran paste, interior, etc.

They still noticed the A/C didn't work.
