I have been trying to whittle through the choices by asking, via email, lots of questions . . . like tell me what tears, rips and battle scars there are on the unit; are the batteries & tires original; one owner; VIN etc?
PPL had 3 units that I thought were of interest. I put together 3 separate emails, one for each rig, asking my questions. Over a 2 week period and two repeat re-sends of my emails, I still had no response
So what am I missing in my search?
What are you missing? The point.
Again and again you've found that dealers don't answer your voluminous questions. Maybe they should, but they don't. Yet you keep expecting them to. You're tilting at windmills.
For the kind of questions you're asking, I think you're going to have to show up at the lot. If it's too far, then stick to local dealers.
