Bought an X
- Location
- DFW, TX
Don't know how exactly it came into being outside of a sly comment but I bought the Frontier a little brother. Bought a 2004 Xterra for a grand. It's just a 2WD SE and I'm more than familiar with it's maintenance as I've been the one wrenching on it for the past few years.
Now the backstory:
Son in law totaled my wife's car that he was driving while having me do all the work to get his Xterra ready for inspection. He ended up borrowing his dad's Ford 150 for a few weeks. He was going to trade in the X on a used car at the local dealership. Dealership would only offer him a grand for it. I told him at least 2 or I'd give him the grand for it and it stays in the family. Fast forward an hour or so and he asked for the price of the car without the trade. They said they still needed a grand down. I called my Chief financial officer who approved the purchase. My son in law thought I was kidding until I whipped out the credit card for the down payment. I now own a 2004 Xterra SE with 94K on the Odo. He now has a 2018 Ford Ecosport.
