It was a four animal livestock trailer, so it wasnt huge huge, but we always managed to pile it right full with something. It was also a fifth wheel so that could have made a difference too.

As for the 6.9 with 523k on it, for three grand they are dreaming! Ive seen them on the vancouver craigslist for that price, with half the km/s and a nearly rust free body!

i was. i looked at it with interest. started it, drove it around the yard and i was impressed. it probably would have come home if the body had been nicer, but then they'd want more money for it...

they've got a '87 reg cab 4x4 sitting in there now... f150/302. they want 2500 for it, the body is pretty rough but its supposed to run good... almost tempting, might check it out when they have their blowout sale in a few weeks...

Man they sure want alot for their stuff. I bought a 89 4x4 with a 302 and a 5 speed a few years back from a dealer in pa for 800 bucks. I fixed the water pump gasket and sold it for 1600.

Each time ive been there I have seen various stuff go for pretty cheap. If a guy ever wanted a minivan you can get those for next to nothing from there!

Haha not likely Closest thing I would buy would be maybe an expedition. Ill allow the woman to get an SUV of her choice though, although I wont pay for it, unless its like an expedition, maybe a crew/supercab truck
