i think it is a good deal. looks pretty clean. i think mostly you are paying for the miles there. they are low and that is a plus. just be sure it is what you want. if i was in the market for a f-250 i think that would be a buy for me. i would definetley try to haggle it down some though. good luck let us know if you score it.

Well I just did my own Kelley Blue Book price check , and in my area ( central Florida ) this truck would go for $13075 on a dealer's lot . And with a little negotiation may get it down to $12500 ?

Yeah, I've been searching for a while to find the right truck. I told myself to hold out for a 350, for the front end, four doors, full floaters, and whatnot, but then I came across this truck and, well you know the rest. I think they are asking a little much for it too. It's not EXACTLY what I want, but it has low miles and it's a five speed. In my book, that's ***** and beer. I found a Powerstroke-only dealer south of me in California, that has a crapload of exactly what I want, but they're 6-7 hours away. The downside is that I have a trade-in that's not paid off.
Thanks for the help fellas

I drove from Broken Arrow, OK. to Boulder, CO. to get my truck last May and don't regret it one bit. It was a lot longer drive than 7 hours. If you want a good deal be ready to travel! I made a trade on a van that I was upside down on the paynents on. Call the dealership and tell them your situation, I'm more than sure that they will be willing to work with you.

If its not qiute what you want, I would shop more its an ok price but not great,. in reno i was lookiing and 96-97's were going for 12k-13.5k. . shop, know what you want, know what they are worth, and be ready to walk away from a truck if the guy wont come down to you r price. I shoped for over a year for mine, there are a lot of these trucks out there, keep looking. best of luck. J
