Decision time

Well its time, I have a 2001 f250 7.3l and I use that to haul my bikes and stuff around while I'm restoring my 73, but here's the thing it has low miles and I don't want to rack a ton up on by driving 60 miles a day to college then work then back home. I'm In a pickle looking for a 2nd truck now. ive found 2 I really like an 03 6.0 fully rebuilt I like and a 04 f150 with 199000 miles in outstanding shape. Any opinion on what to do? Thanks

If it was me, I would keep looking. Find a 150 with a lot less miles

It doesn't do a truck any good to sit, but if I was wanting something else it would be a commuter car or bike. Something that gets enough mileage to justify the expense of getting it, 40mpg or better.
