blk/blk, i love it.

goodluck with your sale!.

I switched out the wheels yesterday to the 19" winter setup. Unfortunately no one has made a move and I'm out of time. $6k worth of Dinan parts alone, two sets of wheels, cargo divider. I'm keeping the 20" 87s because I know I can get rid of those and I'm not giving them to the dealer. Unfortunately I can't remove the dinan stuff because i don't have the stock parts as they were installed when new. Dealer is giving me $9k. I'm taking a bath on that truck.

That's a shame you have to unload it. The market for the 4.6 is a bit tricky, I'm sure being in MI limits your potential buyers even further.

The Dinan package was a real selling point for me. To piece together the kit is thousands but if you buy an X with the package already installed you can "pay" quite a bit less compared to a stock X.

Same story with the 4.6 compared to 4.4. In this case $9k bought a lot of truck for the money.

At least you can recoupe another grand out of the wheels. Anytime you are in a distressed sale you have to expect to take a bath. You probably took less of a bath than buying a new Honda and selling in a few years. Sad to see a 4.6 go from an enthusiast to a dealer but at least it will live on for the next owner.

Wish you could have found an enthusiast home for it, hell if I ever get rid of my loaded 03' 5-speed I would have loved an is of some sort to take its place, especially a Dinan one.

Too much time and effort though and with the repairs i've put into my truck i have to keep it for a while.
