I had to go to this dealership today to get some parts (24v bulb and belt for the Wolf), if you can believe it, this unit is still there (I know right!), now wearing....well I'd call it camo but it's really no specific pattern? Headliner still sagging and homebuilt masonite(?) shift boot.
So, what does one get when they drop 69k at the dealership for a Unimog like this? Well you get some kind of a cab lift (I can't comment since I'm not familiar with them, I like my cabs where they were put on at the factory, again, personal preference and to each his own), lots of shiny tire spray (can you get that crap in a 45 gallon drum, cause they used it!), an unhooked cable of some kind (I'm guessing winch, but didn't care enough to find out), anything with rust is plastidipped or undercoated, right over top, bondo pock marks on the hood (didn't snap a pic, was laughing too hard) and undercoating sprayed on unprepped, non-degreased surfaces cracked and peeling away, just waiting to trap and hold moisture. Yes even the fuel tank was sprayed right over without prep by the looks of it.
Rattle can undercoating and lots, LOTS of overspray
They had a used Gwagon on the lot as well, anything rusty (licence plate bracket, tops of hinges, yeah that's right, not the whole hinge, JUST THE TOP if it was rusty, top of one hinge, 1/2 of another, the licence plate bracket wasn't even masked, just sprayed over and the bumper underneath), was plastidipped. Seems this dealership likes a quick dirty cover up for a sale. Potential buyers beware, ymmv of course.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not ragging on the PO, the rear box sides are really well done and a nice solution to a CASE deck that doesn't have sides, the picker for spare tire (didn't see one, probably extra?) is nice, and the rear winch mount (bumper isn't my thing but to each his own) is really well built. I'm really not into tires that size that require a cab lift. But when the dealership buys it for much less than 1/2 of the ask, and does a $hitty "detail" coverup and has the gall to ask 69k for that? Sheesh. Time to buy some rattle cans of undercoating and sell some farm equipment I have laying around.
Unclear if the spare engine and plow are included or extra, I didn't care to ask. Not enough clorox wipes to get the used car salesman grease off me if I did.
So....much.....undercoating....everywhere....They used undercoating like I used commas, way, way, to frequently.
