Very nice!
I wasn't specifically implying that I thought that this was a scam, however, with the number of scams present on ebay right now, it is very important that the seller's dot their "i's" and cross their "t's" if they want to see fair market value for their listings. As an example, I recently bought a boat off ebay, the listing was so bad, that I could have sworn it was a scam at first. I did some research and decided to take a risk. As it tunred out, the risk paid off by me paying 40% of what similar boats were selling for!
I think that you can find at least 5 auctions right now that mis-use "D" and "W" with regard to Dodge trucks, and you can probably find 50 trucks that mis-use "C" and "K" for Chevy/GMC trucks. I just found it interesting that in two listings the seller never mentioned that the truck was 4 x 4. And, I agree that it looks like you can barely make out a front diff in one picture, but just barely. As for ride height, the "400" 2wd truck in several makes ride a little higher because of heavy leaves and solid front axles.
If you are listing a truck on ebay, do us all a favor and leave out a bunch of "obvious" stuff so that we get a shot at buying it cheap!
Just an observation!
