- '10 Eddie Bauer V8 4x4
In one corner we have:
A white EB V8 4x4 with 118k with everything I want except nav system that is 275 miles from me (important because I will drive my 99EB to trade in). According to the car fax, it has had a minor front end collision. I figured that might be the case, since it was missing it's V8 badges (I called to verify it was in fact a V8)
Lived in Oklahoma (one owner)
Had the capless fuel pipe recall done in 2013
Looks like regular maintenance at a recurring dealership (that's a good sign)
Differential serviced/flushed/changed @ 23k???
Tranny flushed/filled @ 55k (me likey) .... and then....
1 front-end accident in April 2017, then he/she sold it/traded it in - it has been repaired and then for sale since.
When this dealer (who has it now) bought it at auction in May 2017, they did (among other maintenance)
*Axle seals replaced
*Pinon seals replaced
*Rear differential fluid flushed/replaced
And then 3 months later, less than 100 miles on the odometer
*Wheel bearings/hubs replaced
*Differential fluid flushed/replaced <------ say what? I thought you just got through doing that 3 months ago...
$10,500+/-
And in the other corner we have:
A white EB V8 4x4 with 97k with everything I want including nav system that is 713 miles from me.
No accidents
Lived in Northern Va (basically near the DC metroplex from what I can tell)
Had the capless flue pipe recall done in 2013
Looks like regular maintenance at a recurring dealership (that's a good sign)
Torque converter serviced/repaired and power steering fluid flushed/changed @ 29k
Paint sealant applied/reapplied what is that all about?
Coolant flush @ 48k
power steering fluid flushed/changed @ 61k
Rear Diff serviced/flushed/changed @ 68k
Coolant flush again @ 74k
Engine/powertrain computer module checked - induction system serviced @ 95k... I have no idea what that means... lol
$11,750+/-
My first thoughts, what is going on with the diffs on that first one? and torque converter on the second one? What goes wrong with a torque converter in less than 30k? And the paint sealant thing... is that a rust-belt thing we southerners don't know about?
I will most likely buy one of these trucks... like, tomorrow. What do you guys think?
