If that is American dollars, there are some expensive prices in your neck of the woods.

 

If it was USD it would actually be cheaper

I think you and I need to get into business together. I will start buying up all the 1992-1996 F-150's and start shipping them to you, you double the price even after container shipping prices and we make a quick and easy few grand a truck haha.

[QUOTE=stewart89;12865289]That would be a great idea except that all the trucks you see are right hand drive and the cost of conversion would swallow up any profits unfortunately
Im guessing 20k for a conversion at least

 

I'm going to look at the truck on Saturday and I'm going to see if I can get him down to a fair price. If I can get him to a price that I like, I'll buy it. I hope we can make a deal because I really like the truck.

 

Yeah, it's all about what you think it's worth. You're the one looking at it in person, and you're the potential buyer.

 

I only paid $3500 for my 49k mile 6 cylinder 5 speed 4x4.

 

Asking way too much for that truck, its nice but its still 20 years old with 120k miles.
Also its 2wd, probably a 2500 rig around here.
What their asking is getting into 4*4 psd range.

 

Spoke to the guy today. He said his bottom line is $5,800. I'm not paying that much for it. I'll give it a few days and work on him some more to see if I can get him down on price.

 

Good call. Either he will come down with his price, or some uninformed individual will walk in with the money and be willing to pay for it.

 

Something tells me that if he won't take less than 5800 he's going to have it for a while......

 

I've got him down to $5,500, and I'm still working on him. He told me that he gave the guy $5,200 for it on trade. I'll keep working on him, and if I can't get it for the price I want, I'll look for another one.
