I'd say no way it's worth that for the truck.....but I have no idea what the plow is worth, so the question becomes is it worth it to you.

Considering that it has obviously had a difficult life I'd probably start with an offer $1500 or so below the asking price. JMO.

owner says he got the plow 2 yrs ago and only plowed his small commercial property.
hood is primer black, fenders are painted.
underside of cab has only surface rust on the seams, bed has aftermarket quarter panels just screwd on, primer black.
interior seems like it has the 206k miles

Looking at the picture and what he says, I would offer about 3,500 dollars.

I think it all depends on who did the re-building and what they did. There can be a huge amount of variability and you may be buying a white elephant or on the other hand this may be the greatest bargain out there.

I would have no trouble with $7,000 if I knew and trusted the engine and tranny rebuilders.

Since I don't, I would not pay a nickel for the truck.
