Interesting letter received.. thoughts ?

Heh, I doubt there's a car dealer anywhere that doesn't want to "buy" (take as a trade-in) a vehicle if they get to sell a new vehicle at the same time.

yeah I suppose... buy it back cheap and sell me new at top dollar. I'll check in to it for a laugh. I'll figure out where I would have to be to come out good in the deal, tell that to the Stealer and get thrown out on my ear

"there is a lack of Jeeps in the midwest"

They buy yours ... they sell you another one ... the number of jeeps in their lot increases by ... no, that can't be right :-)

my apologies I canceled it as soon as i put it up. a couple months ago people ragged on me because of my name..nothing to do with selling in my post. I never tried selling to anyone here.. Wranglers have always been tough to buy.. It is easier to sell them than to buy which is good for wrangler owners... it is ALWAYS better to sell to private party than a dealer.. Dont get me wrong I love buying from individuals who are in need of cash because that is when I make my money...

I get the same letter all the time... Except from a VW dealer, they want my TDI Jetta.

I have a friend who used to drive a beat up 1988-89 Chevy Berreta and he would get that letter from various Chevrolet dealers saying, "We are in short supply of 1988-89 Berretas. We need your help..."

This was of course in 2000 or so. hehe It's just their way of talking you into trading in. Can't hurt to see what they'll give you for it though.

I phoned a dealer here on the west coast of Canada about 3 weeks ago, looking for an 04 rubi for my wife, no such thing right now, he searched BC, no luck, he then searched Alberta, no luck, said he could try farther but I said don't bother, I'm not interested in going more then 1500 miles to get a jeep, if he could even find one further.

Dave proclaimed:

Don't buy. Let *me* open a dealership, and I'll send you an even better letter. I'll even tell you that I have hundreds if not thousands of would-be off-roaders standing in line to buy your 2003 Rubi...and that since I am such a nice guy, I will offer to take it off your hands and replace it with a brand new 2005 model for a very modest shipping and handling fee. Trust me...

What!? They too cheap to buy a stamp to send you that letter? Heck I get them every year even from dealers I never heard of.

FrankW proclaimed:

?!?!? Come to Oregon! Not hard to buy wranglers up here. They do hold their value pretty well though.
