Truck Evaluation

Free Geek is in possession of a 1990 Izuzu Trooper, 4 door, 6 cylinder sport utility vehicle, that was donated by David Pool. The truck is in good working order and is safe to drive. The truck has just over 118,000 miles on it. While the truck drives well, it does have some mechanical issues that preclude using it for freeway travel. The vehicle is gasoline powered and get poor gas mileage (less than 15 mpg).

Option One: Sell

Put money towards other equipment costs (i.e. forklift/pallet jacks/truck).

Kelly Blue Book rates it at $1,370.00, I estimate the actual resale value at around $1,500.00.
