The understanding was that we would sell the G35 once I got pregnant. So just this Friday, a lady bought her dream car off of us. She looked at a few G35's and when she saw ours, she immediately told her mom, "I saw my car today!" She would have paid full listing price for it, but we deducted the price to buy new tires since the back tires were on it's last breath. I have to admit the car was very nice. We never saw another one that had all the packages on it. Too bad it's a stick shift, two doors and way too cramped in the back to carry a baby seat.
So he's also been looking for a Toyota Tacoma (2004 and older) since after that, the Tacoma started looking as big as a Tundra. He didn't want something bulky with extra weight that wasn't necessary. Let me tell you that the Toyota Tacoma 2004 and older trucks are very sought after because everyone seems to have the same opinion about the new Tacomas. The blue book on those Tacoma doesn't represent the real value of what people would pay for it. Also, they fly off the listings. Well, we saw one listed in Los Angeles for a very good deal so went up there to take a look at it. The truck ended up being in the middle of Watts. The guy posted it for 3 months and no one came to take a look at it after they found out what neighborhood he lived in. Even after Allen talked to him, the guy told us he didn't live in a safe neighboorhood and to meet at a nearby park where there is a lot of people. Doesn't that sound totally worrisome? Against my better judgment, we go there and meet him anyway. This guy was the most hard working, old Mexican guy I've ever met. Very genuine and trustworthy and he just can't sell his truck. This truck had only 34,000 miles on it and he only drove it 2,000 miles since he's bought it off his friend who was sick. It was hooked up with a 2,000 camper shell and bedliner. All this wasn't listed on the original listing. We got such a sweet deal on the truck and all we had to do was drive into Watts to get it. What an experience!
