Is it a 4x4? Automatic Transmission?

I paid a little more for a 4dr. 4x4 auto with 75,000 miles on it. I would keep looking.

its a 4x4 with a brand new transmission i just test drove it and it seemed to need a little tlc but no more than a half day of little things also when i talked to the they said if i could pay cash they would take $3699 they also will fix the key stuck in the ignition and the gas gauge sensor and the ses light they said is a o2 sensor i didnt have enough time to pull codes on it i have a 1994 sonoma and i have a friend with a 1998 s-10 zr2 so i know under the hood of it good and it drives pretty good i also took it down some dry off road trails when test driving it (things my lowered noma could make it through and it was great)

the SES light is probably the stupid smog pump that are on the motors.. mine trips once and a while..
and the key stuck in the ignition is cause the little bearings/tumblers in there.. are probably worn/stuck..

just thought id let ya know..

oh BTW.... id pick it up if i had the cash..

Although it's not the absolute best reference in the world, I ran a quick lookup on KBB and it came up with a private party value of $3200. With over 100k on the odometer and small nuiances, I would keep the price war down below the $4000 mark even with 4x4 and a new transmission. Good luck!
