Default Buying a 2000 recon is this a good deal

I'm thinking about buying a 2000 recon for $1800. It looks like it's in really good condition. Is this a good price for one? He was firm on $2000 but he says that he needs the money bad.

No it's not hot. The guy has the title and everything to it. So it sounds pretty good? I'm going to look at it tomorrow.

Buy it at this price if it's in good shape and drives OK. You'll use it for 3 years and break even when you sell it. Don't wait ... I lost 3 good deals by going back the next day.

Good luck

Make sure you check the oil, listen to the motor and look around for signs of being wrecked. Does it need tires? That's at least another $200.00 if it does. If it's in good shape and not the tan color then it sounds like a decent deal. (I didn't like the tan color.)

I love our recon!!! Its been along time since I have seen a tan one. I see mainly red and the green ones.

rickytz7111,

I hope you enjoy it as much as we have ours. First thing I would check is when was the last time the oil was changed, spark plug and inspect the air filter.

After that I would maybe change the rear end oil.
