anyone who can give me their thoughts. #4 is a 96 xtnd car long bed. it has 260k on it, trans replaced at 100k. it is listed for 4k. its been maintained with records. body looks ok, rust on fenders, but nothing is too far gone IMO. I feel the engine block, pistons,and all are good. is it close to time to do glow-plugs, pumps, etc at this mileage? Let me know your guys thoughts, again, i have access to a shop and all the tools to repair things. Once the Season starts, it'll be easier to make repairs on days off from working!

thanks a million everybody!

Good luck with your new truck. Any problems or questions feel free to ask, some good guys on here to help you out if needed. Downpipe and straightpipe are always a bonus.
