    Yea most of you guys are in the south.. your cost to live tends to be cheaper then it is up here. So your used vehicles will go for abit less. And if that truck is as clean as stated, its worth 8k

    Im thinking i will try for 7K. So then my next question is,how long can i expect it to last mile wise?I will take care of her with only minor alittle of roading,1-2 times a month,as oposed to with my last truck,4-6 times a month with the mud group,lol.

    N if i got it,its getting lifted atleast 6'' with 35's and tuner.

    Some are rocking over 200k miles, others die at 100k. If you keep up on the filter changes and don't bounce off the rev limiter you should be good to go.

    I'd get 4.56 gears to help the trans live off-road with 35s also.

    If its already at 150K, I would only worry about the transmission giving out. No reason why the motor shouldn't keep on tickin for a long time.
