Not bad, though I’d take it to the next level with sticky gorilla tape on that steering wheel.

"Good for parts or beater truck".

Uh, looks like it's had the second one covered for a while already.

Trying to determine if this is a scam posting or not. It's been listed for almost 2 weeks. Really clean truck.

$6000 for a 50k mi really clean diesel and has been listed 2 weeks. Definitely a scam.

I'd call BS just because of the "too good to be true" factor - an '03 7.3 with 51k miles for half the price of a 200k mile example. My guess is that was a set of pics taken in 2005 or so. The dealer sticker looks like Auffenberg Ford, in Illinois. Front tag doesn't look like a NY tag to me unless that's a different one from what I usually see. I can see a windshield sticker of some sort, but I don't know what NY has for inspection/tax stickers. As for the rest of the pics, I'm not sure I recall many setting like that in Brooklyn - those must have been taken on vacation upstate, right?

If you're that curious, can't hurt to contact the seller, right?

Says "5" straight piped" from what I can see of the tip, it doesn't look 5" to me. That truck would be at least 3 times that asking price

first three pics you can see the plate. white plates are TX, not NY. Probably a scam, as the scammers like to lift pics from TX ads.

NY has a white plate with I believe blue lettering along with the license plate with yellow background.

they have a White with blue bottom band, which you can see isn't there on pic #3. The Blue/gold only has the band on top.

Saw this while running around. Very clean Texas truck. It started right up. It has the often sought after 2nd row captain seats. I have no affiliation with these people.

He also has a 2000 V10, on his lot/webpage, but it looked pretty rough.
