Thoughts on Texas Direct Auto on ebay?

Like the title says. Looking for some thoughts or first hand experience from dealing with Texas Direct Auto? Any feedback from your dealings with them? Did a google search and have been reading up on them. Plus I read the few year + older threads on here.

Looking through their stock of used F250's and have found some decent trucks.


They're in Missouri City, Tx. just 20 Miles South West of Downtown Houston, Tx.

Thanks.

They have been around for awhile i remember 3 years ago they had some good looking trucks for sale when i was in the market. My guess is if they are still around they cant be that bad of a company.

At the end of the day, it's still just a Buick.

Seriously nice car. $30k in 1987?!?! That's rediculous.

They aren't exactly giving away their vehicles. I'd shop around.

Yeah, they seem to have a regular car lot kind of thing going on. I'm not expecting a spectacular deal on the trucks I'm looking at but at least a decent deal with above average dealings with the sales people.

The one's I'm looking at have reasonable milage for their years and are well below the online blue book values. All of the similar trucks here in town on the reg used car lots and the used car branches of the Ford dealers have almost twice the milage and are $3-4k more.

Yeah, a flight out there would be around ~$125 + ~$55 in fuel for the trip back.
