Just got home & bagged the unicorn.

2003
Extended Cab
Long Bed
1 owner
93K miles
Virginia it's whole life
LT package/loaded/leather, all the bells sans satellite radio

Here is the unicorn part:
IT HAS NEVER TOWED A TRAILER of any type. There is not one scratch or nick on the OEM trailer hitch.
The guy just liked big motor vehicles, as he had a Suburban with the 8.1L as well which he recently sold.

I have a stack records in a folder that is 3" thick, which literally included receipts for wiper blades from 2005 and the like.

The best part:
$14K

It has the light oak/neutral interior, so the carpet needs shampooed, and needs a new driver's seat bottom cushion; but that is it. (BTW, I have never seen Arrival Blue with Neutral/Tan leather before; was definitely ordered specifically as such.)

No Obama birth certificate in the glovebox though JS!

I'll take some pictures in the next few days, but I need to pull my big fender flares, wheels, tires, spacers, and Class-V hitch off of my 200K truck and move them to the unicorn.

FWIW, I flirted with buying this one. Which I mentioned above that 'short fuse' looked at for me.
http://longisland.craigslist.org/cto/4798400031.html
It has 4.10 gears which is somewhat rare in a 2500HD with the 8.1. Most have the 3.73 unless special ordered with the 4.10.

We got down to $16,500 cash over the phone, and he said for any less than that he would keep it.

I bought it through an independent dealer who really only listed on CL for the original owner, a lifelong friend of his. Since I had the original owner's address, I just Googled it; and sure enough, it's on the street view:

Congrats. Like the colors. Guess you don't have to build that long ramp to get the Harley up on the roof rack of the Wagoneer now.
