So I traded in the 02 lightning, and the 03 harley truck.... and I picked up an 03 cobra.
Some info behind it if ya care....
The 03 cobra was obtained by the dealership I'm assuming off a trade in. Upon inspection the engine had a decent scratch on the cylinder wall, so instead of chancing it, they dropped a brand new engine in. I decided it was time to eliminate some debt so I traded in both my trucks. Of course I took a shaft from trade in values, but I ended up getting the 03 for wholesale price and the perk of the new engine. I'm happy with the deal.

Not exactly. I had loans on both trucks so they got taken care of and I took on a single loan for the 03. It reduced my debt a lot, believe it or not.

Cool. I didn't know Ford tore the trade in motors down and looked at the cylinder walls.

They do not, UNLESS there is a problem with the vehicle suspected....

I was about to get that mineral gray one but it got swooped out from under me. the one I purchased was a silver one that never even got a chance to hit the sales floor. I was eyeing it since I saw it in service without any heads or supercharger on. Once the new engine was dropped in I was already talking numbers, even before its certification was finished. Haha, I wasn't gonna let this deal fall thru.

I was up there on Friday having my oil changed and happen to see it. A guy there also told me that they had one just like mine, and that they were about to put it for sale. How many miles on the body?
