It's real. You could buy it. Why not. What are you waiting for?

Here's the actual sales pitch:
GMC SAVANA SALE

2001 GMC Savana 3500 passenger van with regular upkeep and maintenance throughout ownership (HISTORY BELOW). Purchased Sept 2017 from Your Choice Auto Sales in Elgin, IL. Previously a FedEx owned vehicle. Van was inspected by a local mechanic prior to purchase to confirm engine/transmission was in great shape.

Yes, there is visible rust along the outer edge/doors of the vehicle, but this does not affect the structural integrity of the vehicle. If anything, the rough cosmetic look of the van has helped it become a theft-deterrent. The vehicle was purchased by a band for touring purposes, and now we're looking to sell it to invest in something larger.

As you can see, this van has been used extensively, but we stayed on top of repairs 100% to prevent any unnecessary issues. If you know anything about these vans, the interior is crap. GMC cut many corners, including crappy plastic panels that have all sorts of cracks. If looking for something pretty, this ain't it. However, if you're more interested in a reliable vehicle that has been well-loved, please inquire. If you take care of this van, they're known to last up to 300k+ miles!!!
