----------

I found a 2000 4.0 4x4 with 138k on it. No drivers seat or console. The door was unlocked so i opened the hood and it looks like the put the valve covers back on with RTV...

----------

Ok now this is in the right thread
Theres a nice white sport at one of the dealers in town. Its a 2wd. And theres a nice red edge near where I work. Its 2wd as well and looks to be a 3.0. Theres a 04 beside the edge but it has 179k on it and they're asking $9k -__-

This. Pay off the credit card every month. No reason to pay the interest.

People make a big deal out of credit scores. It's not really that tricky, just pay your bills on time.

i don't know if I want another 98-00 as well. They could have just changed the coolant and oil. I also want to know why they're selling a truck without a drivers seat....
