Would you buy a used truck with a lift kit?

https://stlouis.craigslist.org/cto/d...852226591.html

The only (decent) truck within 3 hour drive is this one. But it has a 2 inch suspension lift kit installed by the owner. I greatly dislike truck modifications but this is the only truck I can find.

Any thoughts? Would you buy a used truck with a lift kit?

I wouldn’t turn that down if it otherwise checks out. I’ve seen way worse on CL and other sites that I would look away from. Stuff I’d need an extension ladder to get into. No dice there.

single cab and no inside pics... seems over priced and needs new rubber. The lift is no problem as long as it was done correctly and all the suspension is solid.

Not all lift kits are equal. That one doesn't look bad. Get the seller's info for what lift kit it is so you can undo it.
