Earlier truck with the 4.9L. The 4.2 V6 just doesn't have any... never mind.

92-96=easy to keep running. 97+ will require more time and money.

Also, 92-96 will be near complete depreciation. 97 will still have money in it. I like the 92-96 for the looks, motor choices, and strength. The next body style had too many parts for too few tasks IMHO.

$4000 will get you a truck in GREAT shape around Cincinnati.
