With what all the others have pointed out. Especially with no power steering, and no AC in your part of the country, I would keep looking. You could find a truck that you may like more, for less than he is asking. It helps puts things in perspective when you can compare.

Have you noticed the OP hasn't posted since 11/14?

He did ask for our input. I just hope that he heard it and checks this truck out carefully.

AND.... when they painted the cab, they painted right over the rubber door jamb bumpers. Must have taken it to Earl Schieb.

Earl Scheib. "I'll paint any car for $99.99, no ups, no extras". (For you young guys who have no idea who Earl Scheib was).

Mr. Ed; you must be a whippersnapper. I can remember when it was $19.95. And for an extra $10, they would wash it first.

To the OP: Just some friendly banter from a deep well of knowledge. I hope it helps you make your best decision.

We just have seen scams here before. Sorry if we were unnecessarily skeptical.

I too thought you were the owner to see value of your rig until I looked at your history of posts. Speaking of I liked the red truck from the other post a lot more
