    Feeler- 2001 SVT Lightning

    I am just posting this to see what type of response I can get from people. I have been pondering selling my Lightning as I am not getting as much use out of it like I had planned. First off it's a 2001 with only 19,900 miles and is completely stock and never modified. It was in a single car accident back in 2003 and was repaired by Apple Ford in Shakopee. I slid sideways into a telephone pole, the third time or so I had driven it in the rain. The air bags did not deploy and the truck was driveable after colliding with the pole going 10-12 mph. The shop manager at Apple Ford assured me there was no frame damage done to the vehicle, and if there had been, the insurance company would have just totalled it instead of fixing it. I do have a copy of a carfax verifying this, and everything comes up clean, no salavage/branded title whatsoever. The truck in it's current form is in excellent mechanical condition, however the exterior is good condition. The rear bumper has a couple nicks/chipped paint from me hitting my boat trailer when backing up the truck. I put someone touchup paint on it to cover it up for now. It doesn't look too noticeable, but if you are picky, it would probably cost 300 bucks to get repainted. There are also a couple scrapes near the top of the truck bed where the hard tonneau cover latches to the bed itself. These are not noticeable at all when the tonneau cover is on, only when it's completely off. And on the way bottom side of the drivers side door there is a scrape/dent that is about 12" long that is noticeable only from way up close, but otherwise you kind of have to search to see it. There are no door dings as I always park the farthest out in parking lots and the paint is in overall good condition (could use a new wax job, but no other problems). Truck will need 2 new tires soon, but the other two tires have about 80% tread life left. The stock rims are in okay shape, no pitting, no flaking, but two of them have some curb rash. Also included in the sale would be the color matched hard tonneau cover in excellent condition (leer brand), in dash cd player with sirius satellite installed, xtant 4 channel amp powering 4 infinity kappa 5x7 speakers. I also have the stock stereo equipment, also included. My price would probably be about $15k for everything. Anyone have any input/suggestions/questions? Sorry about the novel length post, but I just wanted to be upfront and straight forward with any interested persons.

      I really kind of want to let this go asap, by march 1st at the latest. I could probably get $16-17k for it, but January is not a great time for selling this type of vehicle. I kind of need to get rid of that $600/month payment because of an employment change. If you anyone wants pics, let me know as it may take a day or so as the truck is currently hibernating.

                          I am asking right around where my pay-off is at. I will find out today or tomorrow as far as exact numbers, but it won't be more than $15,500. I am going to take it out of the garage today and shoot some pics. I will post them sometime today.
