Thanks in advanced

From what the dealer shared with me and through research, the 2003 HSE's had some eletrical problems but the y were fixed for the 2004 models. I own a 2004 and it runs and performs awesome. I hope this helps you ntavila.

Not being familiar with RRs i wasn't sure if this is the type of thing that can be fixed easily or if this is a major problem.

thanks agian.

Hmmmmm. Is this a certified pre-owned vehicle.....

Thanks Rover Jay - The car is not a certified pre-own vehicle and they are offering it at 7700 (I asked them to lower it 1500 in case the tranny was out). Worth the risk. It's a 2002 Rhino edition - clean body.
