Ya, paid off and clean title doesn't sound like money issues, and less than 500 miles seem unlikely that there was something not noticed initially but noticed while driving that made him decide he didn't like it.

Or maybe he got it at MSRP and is trying to make an extra day $10,000 or more.

What would that build be at msrp in america? Sorry for my ignorance. In canada it would be about 28000 CAD… so… i can tell already the markup is astronomical lol just cant tell how much
It would be around $24,000 USD MSRP.

My favorite part of any market - Synthetic middlemen inserting themselves into the sales chain for a useless buck.

I see he's fibbing a bit about the MPG too. Nice.

How is he the middleman when it is his own truck he is selling? In this scenario a middleman would be a dealer or other 3rd party he is having sell the vehicle on his behalf.

No he isn't. 42 MPG is the rated MPG stated on the factory sticker. There are also people getting well above that.

Why do people have a problem with others selling their truck, or any other belonging for that matter? People are taking things personal and it's kind of terrible to do.

If I get the chance to make $10,000 on my hybrid I will probably do it.

The rated MPG is 37. 42 is city, which he is clearly not stating.

Have you ever heard the term 'scalping.'

I paid $248K for my house, Market value is well over $500K now. Am I a bad guy if I sell it at market valve? I do feel for people trying to buy off the lot, but, supply and demand are what drives our Country's economy. So it is hard for me to get upset at anyone doing this. Jealous because I didn't order multiple Mavericks and sell all but the one I want to keep. Absolutely!
