Exclamation May have serious trade on my LS finally.

So I dropped the truck because the guy wasn't too serious about throwing in cash and it had way too high of miles for me it had 172k when i got to drive it, but I am looking at a 2001 Buick Regal tan with tan leather and mooroof and a 3800 and premium sound system and 75% tread tires with 124k, yeah still up there in miles but this ones nice, and it would be great to get some of the HATER HEAT off me, for those of you who don't get what I mean its when you live in a college town (or anytown for that matter) and you have a pretty nice car and drunks kids, or jelous people yell things at you which are ususally derrogatory, and a buick isn't exactlly a nice 2 door but I actually really like the Lesabres and Regals (3800s lol) so what do ya think, heres a pic or 2

in his ad he says he has recipets for these things that have been done recently: spark plugs and wires, battery, and windshield wipers, nothing major but still a plus

Ahh talked with the guy younger guy too, he was like well I am just wanting to sell it right now,so I mentioned that he clearly had in there trade for a 2 door car or small truck, and he replied well I would rather have a Diesel now. Ok maybe I'm wrong but 5k won't get you much of a diesel, anyway I seem to have up and down people here, and my ad also lists everything wrong with it. pshhh

my cousin has a Park Ave. and its a VERY SMOOTH ride. i feel that buicks are underrated because people assume its an older people car. but its very nice. and i would def consider on getting one down the road. i am a fan! plus. its a 3800!

I know, I found it somewhat childish how he changed what he said in his add over the phone yet did not edit his add, emailed a dealer about a purple SS with 148k he is asking $4,700 and my car on kbb or nada is around 4575 to 4675 for rough or fair or poor whatever you want to call it condition. I only priced my car in that condition due to the Iowa Prior Salvage title from a light from end hit that resulted in no major damage and needed a bumper and hood, also because it has scratches and 2 dents, so if I do not get a good trade in value I will easily say no. And I know that sounds dumb to trade my LS with 81k for an SS with 148k but its an SS that dosent have the common 3400 engine issues
