98 24 valve

I have the oppurtunity to buy a 1998 2500 4x4 ext cab 5spd with the 24 valve engine, it has 100000km on it and has barely seen winter. What should I pay for this truck? It is fully loaded with the exception of leather.

Make sure to inspect for a 53 Block. It would be located on the drivers side of the block just above the oil pan. Is it stock?

The dealer here in town has a 99 with 80K miles on it and is asking 20 Grand! Ridiculous.

If its in good shape and doesn't have the dreaded "53" block casting I'd think 12-14 Thousand US. Then work'em down from there.
