This truck is for sale and I was thinking about buying it but whats your thoughts. It has a standard tranny with 131,000 miles and I know it was used for towing. It looks fairly nice but I suspect the truck my be a bit tired. I think I can get it for 4000.00 whats your thoughts

Without seeing a picture or getting more details I couldn't really tell you a fair price for it. But around here, a fairly clean truck with around 100k miles with that layout goes for about that much and maybe a little less.

If it runs and drives good, and has little body rust. That would be a good price in my area.
But like GNR22 said, it's hard to give much more then that without some more info and a few pictures.

I'll work on getting some pics. I think the dealer made a mistake and its a diesel not a gas.
