SOLD to a great member of this fine community who will, I'm sure, post up once he has time. I left the below section of my original post intact.

Thanks guys.

To the friends I've made here who I feel like are family, I thank you for all of your time, feedback and the fun times. I'm not going anywhere, just moving into a newer car for an extended commute. Kevin Dunn, Maury, Gary, Jim, Mike, Chuck, Brian, Jerry, John, Zack and so many more I can't begin to list that have helped and encouraged me along the way I say THANK YOU! This is a tremendous community.

Entering "04sleeper" on Google gets "About 64,600 results (0.11 seconds)". :confused:
Most seem to be about Red Mustang.

Thanks for the link Mike. I am going to see if I can update the pictures to post directly.

Waco would be a nice ride, hope to be able to get down there. I'll call later, swamped all day today.

DHP,

I'd say I own your car's twin, but I must humbly admit that yours looks nicer!

I've had my Dark Blue Pearl since March 2004 and I added the Trilogy in November 2006.

My car has been a gentle 3-season driver (Pittsburgh gets this white powdery stuff you're likely not familiar with), stored indoors and waxed regularly. It's won trophies as the local All-Ford show and been lots of fun at cruises too.

And yet your car positively glows.

Like yourself, I'm pondering my next purchase as the Marauder closes in on being a decade old, and I still need to use it as a car quite frequently! I'll never sell mine as it will just transition into semi-retirement, but congrats on having such a fine example and best of luck with your sale.

Greg

Guittard22, I do recall sending you the link.

gpfarrell, thanks for the compliments. I've done what I could to keep mine in as pristine condition as I could, no expense spared to get her set up just right. I hate to sell her but I can't swing buying a newer car for my extended commute without the funding. Well, I could but I don't want to. I know I'll miss her, my kids will too but I'll get another someday.

Thanks guys, someone will be getting a sweet ride.

David,
It go's without saying you have one of the finest Marauder in the country.
I know If I had the money I would buy your ride in a heart beat.
This car has Miss Texas all over it. I would say it would be Miss USA if there was such
a thing for a lady like her. The very best to you and Good Luck with the sale.
The car is worth much more than the asking price.
Knowing David, he is a fair man very soft spoken well mannered just waht you would
expect a true Texan to be like, and so is his Marauder is just the same.
$18 K is below what her true worth is any day of the week. I love the look of the
car. I would love to buy her tomorrow, she would be the apple of my eye for sure.
Stay Safe
Blessing
Russell

I'd sell my Camaro for this, but I don't think I could get close enough through the sale to narrow to an acceptable money gap to buy your car, even with the shape my Camaro is in. :(

I must echo the words written by I think it was Russell from New Jersey that David is what one expects from a Texan - a true gentleman. My dealings with David prove that there are honorable and trustworthy people left in this world. I am lucky enough to now have a "Blue" to go with our "SB". As for the vehicle the pictures were great but do not prepare you for when you actually see the car and how it was maintained. I wish David and his family nothing but the best and shall keep him updated on any updates made to his pride and joy.
