Plow Question, revisited

Ok, I located a 8ft. Boss plow used for $2,200.00. After pricing some new ones, it seems like a pretty good deal, what do you guys think?

The big problem......

You give us nothing to go off of. How old is the plow? How many seasons does the plow have on it? How many times has the fluid been changed? Has it been indoors or outdoors? What kind of shape is it in? Has a contractor owned it or a homeowner? I would have to see it and talk to the owner to say as to weather it is worth $2200 or not. Give us something to work with....

Do you need to buy the steel that goes on the truck? Installation? What truck did it come off of..? lighting etc.

I would sure hope that comes with all the brackets to fit a SD, I am guessing he would install it himself or have someone else do it. It cost about $300-$350 to have it installed...

The plow is about 2-3 years old, came off of a 2002 F350. It comes with all of the brackets and wiring. It is pretty good shaper, a few small spots of surface rust.

Talk him down to $1800 and take it, keep in mind the price to have it installed unless you plan to do it yourself, change the fluid and clean the filters beofre you ever use it!
