[QUOTE="scott degroot, post: 1015476, member: 66039"] Personally I would never buy a vehicle unseen or undriven. Even trusting someone else to inspect it for you is a long shot because what might seem trivial to them may be important to you. When I bought my Tundra I drove about 150 miles away to look at it and eventually buy it. It was purchased from dealer and I had the salesperson call me when the dealership closed the night before to let me know the truck was still there, said she was looking at it while we were talking. The next morning I got there before the dealership opened and when the salesperson showed up she couldn't find the truck, turns out it was in service and was waiting on brake pads to show up that were ordered the day before which means that she lied to me when she told me she was looking at the truck the night before when she called me. The truck also didn't have options on it that they specifically told me it had. I got lucky though because the dealer actually let me in the service department to inspect the truck while it was on the lift with all the wheels off and also plugged my laptop into it with my Toyota software to look a the vehicles electronics Point of the story is that people will tell you anything to get you to show up and I can only imagine what they might say if you bought the vehicle sight unseen.
