Craigslist find
I want your guys opinion on this truck I found on Craigslist. It is a 1994 f150 4.9l 5 speed 4x4 and really clean for a New York truck. I really like it and am going to try to go look at it soon. The only thing that scares me is the motor has 210000 miles on it. My current 4.9 5 speed 2wd has 165000. He is trying to sell it for 3k which isn't bad but for the mileage I think a little high tell me what you guys think. http://elmira.craigslist.org/cto/5099018166.html

I've already done plenty of replacing rusty parts on my current f150. I'm sick of it

Hidden rust is for sure. I had an 89 F350 that from the outside, it looked like a nice solid truck. As I took it apart, it was a mess. The floor pan was almost gone, the frame had a lot of deep corrosion. Corrosion is expensive.
