Could be...What would be cooler to have a older nice condition diesel truck with your vintage muscle car on the trailer..

The 1st gen and now the 2nd gen are not just work trucks....Guys are doing frame off restorations on these trucks..

I will take any older restored vehicle before a new vehicle.....One thing....Who wants the large payments on a new vehicle that you can't fix by yourself anymore..

I ran into a older fellow about 4 years ago with a mint 1st gen...It to only had 21,000 Kms...It was traded in at a dealer...I don't know what he paid for it...

I'm sure he has that much in it. The engine and "shiny stuff" look great. However, if I paid $30k for a 1st gen, I'd want it to have some significant upgrades, and not just shiny stuff. Upgrades like deaver springs and custom valved bypass shocks, a p-pump conversion, a fancy set of ball bearing twin turbos, a newer trans built for some power, etc.

I'm pretty certain that those 37" Toyo MTs are going to be closer to the body than appropriate with only a 4" lift.

Pretty truck though. Except for the overgrown stacks.

The trash can stacks absolutly kill it for me. I'd rather spend my money on a low mile stock truck.

Yeah, I don't like the stacks, or the blacked out grille. To me, it needs a chrome nose to match my rumnumb nose


These trucks that sold are really nice.. but I just don't have that much money sitting around...

Well...I got curious to see what the final bid was...The final bid went to $22,676....But the owner wants $30,101.

I missed some of the extra pics...Man those stacks are huge..Look like 7 inch..

We must be looking at different trucks (or he has it listed in more than one place). The bid right now is $22,600 with 3 days 5 hours left on E-bay. He does have a "buy it now" for $30,000.

Hell it didn't cost 30,000 new what is the guy tryin to pull ??? not worth it

Diesel Dave2

That's the same one Bill...Black 1st gen with very big stacks...

bill-d-c

I figured it must be, couldn't be two of them. He must have listed it in multiple places. He has obviously put alot of money in it, but it would make me nervous buying it. If the guy's quality of work was suspect or he used a hodge-podge of parts from this and that...it could be a nightmare to keep up and running. But, if it was done right, it'd be like a new truck I suppose.
