Blzbo Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 Would like to by a blue ss any year in good shape. Prefer under 50k miles. I would also appreciate any advice on what to look for and what to avoid. I am located in Orlando. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2003_SuperSport Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 (edited) Under 50k you'll be looking to pay between $17000-$22000... When looking you want to make sure it has been taken care off and not beat to death as the tranny's are the weak point if any major Mods have been done... If it is a Stock vehicle with minor bolt ons the stock tranny will last a long time... Make sure it has the proper maintenence routine done... Common problems besides tranny if beaten on, would be steering wheel clunk which is more of an annoyance than a problem, Gauge cluster have been known to go out between 60-75k miles which is a easy fix and there are guys that can fix it up cheap on this site... tears in the seat if they are not conditioned enough, heated seat elements have been known to go out, besides that no major problems until major mods are done... The stock block is good for tons of HP and will get you in the 11's without doing any internal engine mods, transfer case is said to be good up to 1000hp and life of the vehicle... All in all it is a very good reliable truck if taken care of... Good Luck with the hnut and you won't regret getting one if you can find one... These trucks are getting harder and harder to find as they only made them from 2003-2007 around 27,000 made total.... AWD were made from 2003-2005 and I beleive all 2006-2007 are rear wheel drive... The ISSS was made in 2006 and is RWD and very rare only in black... blue being pretty rare and finding one under 50k is getting impossible... Just check this site as alot of very nice SSS's go up for sale ocassionally... You may have to travel to find the right one...

Mrrat1SS Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 Gonna be a hard find, over 10 years old now!! I always surf craigs & miles are almost always over 100K. These trucks are too much fun to have sitting in the garage Found a blue in NH or RI last night, seemed a scam for the price though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
