Boarman03 Report post Posted June 29, 2020 The main thing is this truck is barely broken in. Should be a very reliable quality vehicle. Simple to work on and able to go most anywhere. It is a standard 5spd tranny? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DirtyHarry Report post Posted July 8, 2020 Has this truck sold? Pics available? You could post that on Denver craigslist for $8k with only 84k miles, that truck is the best recipe for Rocky Mountain mining trails. Sorry to be the wanker who says it, but that low of miles on a rust free desert truck, you have a gem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
