Another one with Frame Rot- Don't Buy!!!

[MtnChick]

I've been waiting for this one to show up. I talked to a dealer in NH who took it on trade a couple months ago, and they told me it was wholesaled because of frame rot. Saved the VIN 'cause I had a feeling I knew where it was headed (for those who read my last thread on this dealer).

Are they the type of dealer that won't let you take the vehicle to a mechanic for inspection before you purchase it? Seems like they would be.

Think it was this one. I remember reading it.

That's the right thread. I'm fairly sure there is another one coming too- a Desert Dune V6 5 speed with a hole, '00 if I remember right. They kind of dole them out one at a time so they can claim "rare". I do know of one good one they sold last year, so I guess it's a mixed bag. I personally wouldn't talk to them, but if you do- don't trust.
