Said they'd get a call from him every month or so asking if it was sold, they'd say no it's priced too high, and he'd say find a buyer. They were getting kinda irritated about it all. I put in an offer with them which he rejected and they told him that he needed to come.get his truck back because they can't sell it at a price he wants.

I bet that's the case here.
Beauty of the free market, something is only worth as much as someone is willing to pay.

Personally really like the combination, but the price is ridiculous to put it mildly. Can't wait for the car market to go back to sanity.

I'd much rather have LSB, but to each his own. Price on that car is looney tunes.

My eyes aren't as good as they used to be (translation: blind old man) but doesn't that color look a bit like bluestone metallic?

Not really. It has a definite green hue to it.
