2004 Vortex for sale

[Mikey P]

$12,000
A legendary truck needs to move out of California.

Price reflects the fact that a ring job or new used motor will be needed asap.

Everything else is as it should be for a truck this age.

Replaced blower, Reman Tranny, Fresh does not leak..

 

[Steve Lawrence]

2.5" hose ready I'm guessing?

Sorry, I should butt out. Doesn't fit in my northern clime garage.

But, wow, this is gonna make a huge difference in somebody's biz.

 

[DAT]

How much is engine replacement

 

[dealtimeman]

Does the mytee sticker come with the deal or is it extra?

Thats why its so cheap....

 

[dealtimeman]

Oh that’s why......

 

[Charlie Lyman]

Thats why its so cheap....

But they have a great warranty department. Why does everyone always say that and why has so many people had to deal with the warranty dept?

 

[Papa John]

It's a shame Aerotech won't help with moving all those great components to a new chassis.
I would think there's a market for it.

I got the same letter as you did Mikey.
My vortex has to leave CA. 2 years earlier then expected.
I guess I'll have to put mine on the market soon also. Damn.

 

[Mikey P]

I didn't get a letter..

Sure. I'l have to do it after 1030pm tonight.

 

[Papa John]

Register in NV?

But you still can't operate it in CA. They did have a day pass option available before, but this law keeps getting changed so I don't know if that's even available any more.

 

[Nomad74]

What a pain! We did it to ourselves.

 

[Acp]

why cant you use it in Cali anymore? is it because its diesel and running during the job?

 

[Mikey P]

No DEF system

 

[Lee Stockwell]

This is the flip side of the rush to buy pre-def diesels a decade ago.

 

[BIG WOOD]

Can someone tell me what s DEF system is?

 

[FredC]

[Hack Attack]

I test drove a truck bout 2 yrs back that had coking system where it collects all the crap in the cat convertor then burns it off later in one hit (don't know how its meant to be better?) test driving along, looked in rear vision mirror couldn't see anything for the black smoke screen pouring out the back. Had to pull over, rung the dealer he said once it starts dont stop it. Sat on side of road with smoke machine pouring filth out for 10mins getting dirty looks from everyone who had to drive thru it
