<p>Troy,</p>
<p>I still have a few questions. I was wondering why you are selling your car? Also, why you weren&#8217;t just selling it locally near the area you live? Would it be possible for me to check the car out? </p>
<p>Thanks,<br />

<p>Hi,</p>
<p>Could I get more photos of the car, and do you have a carfax? Since you are all the way in oregon, it would be hard for me to look at the car before hand. Also, could I know when the most recent check up was? How tires are? And if there still is still warranty on it, etc.</p>
<p>Thanks,<br />
