Appraise my truck please

Its a 1990, 4x4, Automatic, Single Cab, Camper shell and roof rack. It has 245k miles, but keep in mind the original tranny was rebuilt less than 1000 miles ago. Shifts very smooth.

Engine hunts for speed when cold, but once up to temp, it is perfect. I took it up a 6 mile long, 7% grade yesterday, and it held 65 mph effortlessly with plenty of pedal left to pass other cars. Temp gauge barely moved up that hill.

It appears to be repainted, but everything else is stock. This is a california vehicle with no rust.

Check out my photo gallery and tell me what you think its worth. I wanna know if I got a deal or not.

Tires have about 1-2 years left on them. Windshield is cracked. Brake pads replaced within the last year. Everything else is solid, functional, and in overall good condition.


The jetta was another great deal. Its a diesel. I got it for $250, put about $150 into it and its been my daily driver for 1.5 years now. Definately not for sale. It too is in good shape and has 245k on it, but still gets 44 mpg. The amount of money I save by driving it each year is about what I would get if I sold it. Im keeping it till it dies, then I'll rebore the engine and do it again.
