How often do you get offers for your Comanche(s)?

[Dammerung]

How often do you guys get offers on your trucks? In the 6 months I’ve driven mine, I’ve had 2, with the first being rejected before a price could be said and the second being at a stoplight and being offered $1000 on the spot.

My MJs aren't really visible from the street, but I get people asking about the MJ trailer most every time I head into town.   

[JimB]

Just about every time I stop for gas.

Not for sale. 

[MiNi Beast]

Never been offered I'd prolly take it. 😆

Never, Been so long since I was able to drive it on the road, but at this point I have had it so long it is a part of my past, present and the future. Hopefully I will never have to sell it, it will hopefully move on to a new owner whenever I have moved on from this world. And I am not in a hurry for that to happen!!!

I once found a note on my windshield asking me to call the number if I ever plan to sell it.  (I still have the note.  I've never called the number.)

 

I have had people casually ask if it was for sale. I tell them no.  No one has ever thrown out a price.

I got that a lot when I had my J10.  Everyone wanted to buy it.

 

Then I put a price tag on it.  Everyone vanished like a fart in the wind.

I have had this one for 3 months... So far one offer at a gas station with no price, and a note on my windshield with a number.

[JMO413]

Minimum one a month at the gas station. It seems everyone remembers having a good time in a Comanche!

I get offers pretty regularly.  Most recently on Mother's day from the florist delivering flowers.  She wanted to buy it for her daughter who wants an old truck.  I get thumbs up from other drivers when I'm driving down the road.

I think I only ever got the one casual “would you want to sell it”, way back a couple years after I got my long bed. The answer was “not really”. I do get comments every few times here and there at the gas station, if someone knows what they’re looking at. I get more inquiries about the Lada Niva that’s parked in the yard, although they lose interest in a hurry when they find out it’ll need an out-of-province inspection to register it.

 

But in general I’ve found I interact less with Canadians at gas stations than I have Americans. This was especially the case with the Niva (understandable when there’s little reason to know what it is) which was honestly pretty obnoxious given it was pretty much every other stop, not just gas stations, and I’d get the same five questions, and almost invariably no one would actually bother listening to my answers. It was also noticeable with the Jimmy, given the umm... unconventional paint job. Canadians would stare, and law enforcement often would stop and reverse to see the plate, then start typing furiously into their computer. It was honestly funny sometimes, because I’m parked a block from the RCMP detachment, so I could always tell when there was a new officer from out of town because they’d stomp the brakes driving past and pull in behind it for a few minutes. But I digress... At any rate it was probably every fifth gas station down in the States someone would see the “Jesus” on the side and ignore literally every other word on it, and start going off about whatever local cash-grabbing megachurch I needed to visit... The Comanche in contrast seemed to slip pretty far under the radar for the most part.

I've bought mine in December and I've had two offers. One from my Dad not sure if that one counts. Another from a co worker that is a crazy Jeeper. He's been looking for driveable one with no rust for years.
