I just bought a 94 f250 4x4 idi turbo 5 speed standard cab 160k ...I gave 5800 for it..this truck is clean as a whistle I felt the price was a little high but the truck is very tight..has a new IP and lift pump new starter glow plugs and relay..and had 4 new tires on it...I put a banks down pipe on it w/ a straight pipe exhaust and bumped the ip one flat and shortened the waste gate rod a little bit and I'm very pleased w/ it...

1994 F250 Extended cab XLT
factory turbo
350,000 km
purchased in spring 2010
$4500 can.

PO had done some body repair work and repainted the truck (himself) including new front fenders. Very clean interior, everything works including AC and CDplayer. Recent new rad and GP relay.
Rusty underneath, body work won't last forever especially the box!
I've replaced Shocks all around, one rear leaf spring hanger (should really have done both while I was at it, but one was broken through), return lines.

When I bought my truck.....

The Bad: the 4x4 didn't work, had bad brakes, a hole the rear tank, a rusted out muffler, bad tires, and bent pulley(I forget which one).

The Good: 78,000 miles, the body was rust free and the interior looked brand new.

The Guy wanted $8,000, he got $5,000.

Bought my 93 F-250 2wd 240,000miles for $2000 and all it needed was new glow plugs, glow plug relay, and an air filter and it ran fine.

I gave a rusted out Ford Bronco for mine that had a temporary stall problem. I had to winch it up on a car hauler with a lug-all I swapped on a nearly perfect 87 cab and doghouse. I put on a newer injection pump and replaced all the battery wiring and it runs fine I just figured i'd put the motor in my 89 Bronco but I can't cut the thing up the way it is.
