Freebird Posted June 18, 2022 Author Share #26 Posted June 18, 2022 I knew that it wasn't going to be easy to replace the truck but it's probably worse than I thought. I've searched a 200 mile radius and no luck. I'm being told that it will likely be 5 to 8 months before I can get what I want. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went all the way to St. Louis a few months ago to get the wife's Jeep. Now I'm looking for a small car for my oldest since we moved her so far away from home. Her's went into limp mode for a few miles on the way to Florida with no warning lights set, it's a 2012 Nissan with 140k on it and I'm getting a little worried about it. Everything I'm seeing is 2500-3000 above MSRP. Used prices are just insane. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't found another one anywhere. Looks like it's going to be a long wait. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freebird Posted June 18, 2022 Author Share #30 Posted June 18, 2022 Took my search out to 300 miles and nobody had the truck that I wanted. Most have no trucks at all. I found a local dealer that didn't have one but had pretty much exactly what I wanted already ordered. It had a build date of yesterday so hopefully is about ready to ship. They said that I should have it by the end of July or first of August at the very latest. That's better than the 5 to 8 months that everybody else was telling me. It's basically the same truck I had with a few upgrades. I wanted leather seats this time but of course to get leather seats, you have to buy a "Premium" package that adds other things. So I got the leather interior but also that package comes with a moonroof, JBL 10 Speaker premium audio, other stuff that I also didn't need. So I pulled the trigger. Not the wait begins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcarl Posted June 19, 2022 Share #32 Posted June 19, 2022 You only get to live here for a short time, don't let it get you down. Enjoy the wait and the ride when it shows up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
