Thumbs down I guess people want a warranty from private sellers...

on used vehicles!

Got several texts today from the guy I sold my truck to back in April. Ranting about how he's had to put a radiator in it, water pump, etc. Also says the freshly rebuilt trans is toast. (made me wonder if there was any fluid in it) I got the firebird in trade from him. I do not even want to get into everything that was wrong with it. I didn't once text or contact him regarding any of it. It was a used car, and I expected some wear and tear. I did however let him know everything I had found out about the car when he contacted me today.

Correct me if I am wrong, but a USED vehicle is just that - used. Buyer beware, and be prepared to do maintenance based on age, condition, and mileage.

I drove that truck over two years with hardly an issue. I represented it based on how it treated me. I took it on the chin and paid for a trans rebuild right before I sold it. I guess I should have thrown in a used junkyard transmission and let it fly.
