We had it up on a local site for a few days but didn't really have a lot of interest.
Given how long we had it I felt it was in incredible shape! I take very good care of my cars! I'm pretty sure it stems from working in a car wash when I was a teen! LOL!
There was a few little things on the paint etc, but truthfully for the most part it ran great and was looking excellent!
I was not only ready for something new, I was also VERY tired of having to plug it in during the wintertime. Yes, I said plug it in! It is a diesel engine and would get VERY cold, so I would plug it in at night so that we could use a block warmer. It made it easier for me to get going faster. Otherwise I had to sit in the driveway and let it warm up for about 15 to 20 minutes.
I did this for YEARS! But I didn't mind doing it because I needed the space etc! I have loved the many vacations etc in this truck! The space was wonderful!
Anyway, after a couple days on the for sale site we decided to try our hand at trading it in instead.
So we decided to go to a local dealership where a friend of ours worked. His name is Hank and he was Will's FIRST football coach in little league! I very good guy and he was the used car manager.
He helped us get a fantastic trade in value for the truck, so now it was time to figure out what to get!
I will say it was harder saying goodbye to the truck then I thought!
I actually went over and physically said goodbye to him! I know, it's weird, but he was a good truck for me and I actually felt bad leaving him behind!
Thanks Eddie for being such an awesome truck for us all those years! We will never forger the many memories we had with you!
