Had someone call me this morning, after test driving it yesterday, saying they will take it. She wanted to "pray on it" overnight and is now "getting her ducks in a row" to make the purchase. I'll believe it when the cash shows up. Seemed like a good person though, and she rode over with her brother in a 2001 Jeep XJ. He spent more time looking at my 88 wagoneer XJ than the Olds.
I wonder if her "praying on it," has more to do with her being able to "come up with the money," or as a ploy to get a compassionate price break for holiness from you...

The Jeep enthusiast Brother, may be a good candidate for the Wagoneer???

I think you just have to wade through some unsavory potential buyers on any vehicle sale - to get to the cream sometimes, Tyler.
