Hello Everyone,
New to the forum. Apologize ahead of time if this is posted in the wrong place, still trying to figure the website out.
I'm going to look at this truck on Saturday ( https://offerup.com/item/detail/35ec4e90-05ca-318b-b07c-2d016bfc6346?q=suburban&cid=5.1 ), and just wanted to get any opinions as far as what you think of it? what's the most you'd pay for it? Anything worth mentioning that you may see in the pictures? Is it a good buy? etc. Any feed back really. KBB Value has it at 8,500 and Carfax at 9k. I wanted to get a feel for what he's looking to get so I offered 7.5, he said he had offers for 10.5 , and told me he would do it for the 10.5. We've been talking for about a week now and it hasn't sold, so I'm wondering if he's willing to work with me more once in person. Anyhow, we agreed for me to come see it on Saturday, work out a price, and I can take it in for a PPI (which I will pay for) at his local chevy dealer , and the final deal would be made depending on the results.
So far I have ran the carfax, it's a 3 owner. The first owner did routine maintenance up until 55k miles, then it only shows 7 passed emissions logs with one failing prior to passing at 101k , and one more maintenance log at 114k right before it was sold. 2nd owner had it up until 123k and did do maintenance . Current owner bought it and had plans for it but they changed, so he's selling now, said he's not in the business of selling cars either. Been talking to him for a bit now asking him a bunch of questions, seems straight forward, said the truck is solid and was probably just a weekend car. He did get a CEL P0102 MAF Sensor - Circuit Low , a couple days ago and he determined it was a Mass Airflow Sensor , which he replaced and said took care of the CEL. Other than that he said he's never had a CEL until now, and only other issues were the struts for the rear gate went bad which he replaced, one foglight is broken but he's replacing that too, he also did a bit of maintenance which he specifies in the link I posted.
Look forward to hearing from y'all.
Thank you!
