Lowball offer on my ranger

[Saihung23]

<DIV>So I am working retail and this business owner wants to talk about my 3 rangers for sale.  They were 99's with under 70k miles.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>:smileyindifferent:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>SO he offers me $5k for ALL of them....</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I told him no way...rangers are worth way more than that with that kind of mileage...even if they arent the most powerful out there.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>He wants to point out how they cant carry as much as other trucks and heck they dont even have AC...</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I tell him thats fine, if he wants to find 3 other trucks with the kind of mileage these have on them he is welcome to especially at my low price of $4995 a unit.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>So what happens?  A week goes buy and he buys mine for $12k.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Who says rangers arent good anymore...   :smileywink:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT size=1>/whispers what do you mean this is offtopic...this is about rangers...are you trying to tell me their something else...like S10's....lol, theyre chevy's man...these are RANGERS</FONT></DIV><p>Message Edited by Saihung23 on <span class=date_text>08-07-2006</span> <span class=time_text>10:15 AM</span>

[Jowita]

<P>Well, Saihung, I'm sure if you gave me that pickup-line in a bar, I'd probably respond with something like: "Sorry, friend, but two redheads don't make you right." Or something equally lame and nonsensical. But, given that you're in the used car business, I'm almost certain that a one-time late-night romp might be just the ticket. As long as we had a Ranger with leather.</P> <P>(Hm.
