Discontinued Products you wish were still available

Still drive mine everyday.

I killed mine recently. I've been trying to buy another one for the last 3-4 weeks. Looked at a few, made a few offers, ran away from a few after 45 seconds... its a brutal marketplace out there. Also, people don't change their oil much less their transmission fluid. Some people never even shift into 4 Lo even after years of ownership. And, these 4th gen V8s are pretty much only for sale when they are long overdue to a timing belt and have leaking seals. That's fine and all if you are willing to price $3,000 worth of immediate labor into your selling price, but that's not the case.

Had a pre purchase inspection done on one from a dealer 7+ hours away. Sticker price was $11,900. Timing belt was due from age not mileage. Every fluid on the vehicle was overdue from age and the valve cover gasket seals needed replacing. I offered $11,500 out the door, estimate in hand for the work to safely drive it home, dealer literally told me to go f myself.
