OT- Should I swap

I've
Been asked by an older man if I wanted to trade my '94 ranger with 208,000 miles 2 wheel drive manual ex cab 4 cyl for a '94 Toyota single cab 4 wheel drive manual 4 cyl with 238,000 miles with a 12,000 mile crate motor in it.!! I'm excited
And want to trade and so does he but is this a good deal? I think so just want some experienced advice in the horse trading business!! Thanks!!

22re Matt was right! I like it and it feels stronger than my ranger. The trans and transfer case feel good. Also checked fluids and bearing and brakes. Everything looks good except the sway bar links on the front are shot an needs new shocks! Less than $75 bucks for repairs. Alot cheaper than my f350!

K guys, no deal. When the guy called me up and said let's talk about it I knew something was up. I honestly thought he was one upping me on this deal but when he said throw in 1,000, I looked at him puzzled and thought dang he wants to pay me. Then he says well 800 and your truck and we got a deal! I looked at hum and said seriously, and appologized saying sorry we've wasted each others time and got my things and left. He called me back later and tried to Jew me into 400 and by that point I just laughed and hung up. Oh well, the way things have been going here lately me and Jacquie prayed about it and HE made it clear enough! Thanks for the thought and input!

I got him repped if you didn't!
It's great how things can be made so clear with the help of that little 4 letter word!
But I think for $400, I would have done the deal! But that's just me!!
