we she arrived this am, my wife calls her Xena, Warrior car princess. lol. The only problem buying a car wholesale is ya you need to spend 2 days cleaning it. And she is filty.

GM demo car according to the dealer it came from and the title. 8000 miles. Title is clean, Carfax and autocheck clean. Has some recalls that need to be done I will talk to GM dealer about those later.

Its been driven hard.

Tires are scuffed in the rear (i'll scuff them more), dent in trunk, looks like it went backwards into the woods, as the spare is flat and covered in mud, and there is some grass in the rear a-arms.
Floors need a powerwash
truck needs to be cleaned out
the headliner is covered in black finger prints (probably from the ride into the woods)
other than that. shes a beauty.

Has a nice console, with the survallance button to turn off all the interior gauges and lights.

More pics after shes clean.

Congrats on the car. When you are at the dealership ask them what to use on the light headliner to clean it. When I had my alignment done it looked liked they pulled the car forward and backward with their grubby little mits, using my headliner to pull it forward and the b pillar to push it backwards.

I just talked to the dealer I bought it through, I'm going to spend $100 and have them completely clean the inside next week.
They did a sticker and a wash and vacuum for me for free, which he didn't have to do. You'd think the dealer in ILL it came from would have at least vacuumed it out.

I also only have one key, I'm going to email GM maybe they will find the guy that drove it around and see if he has the spare.

Also appears to have had a cage in it, and a lightbar (just mounted) someone ground off the rivets holding it on. Still checking it over.

I have not driven the car yet, as I have been cleaning and detailing. Just ordered some window tint, and i'm trying to find a better console and some snow tires for the rear.

Also i'm waiting on the shipping company for some damage that was done in Transit. It did not leave the dealer in ILL this way. Looks like someone in the drop yard had some fun. bastards.

well, this keeps getting better. I have to laugh, cause I know some ahole had a good time.

Mud, mud everywhere.

I'm not sure why they are sideways. My appoligies.
