Found a 97 2500 for $7900 with 90k, should i jump on it?
 
Found a 97 2500 4x4 ext cab with 90k on it. Only thing is its an auto, which im somewhat leary of, being a 5 spd guy [laugh]

Is it even worth worrying about or should i jump on this truck? Thats a heck of a price as long as its not ragged and abused!

If it's clean yes! Plenty of auto performance options or look for a donor for 5 speed conversion, don't let it get away because it is auto, 97 is also emissions exempt safety inspection only.

what are you waiting for?

with 90k its barely broken in

What condition is the rest of the truck in? I agree- don't hesitate because of the auto. That can be fixed. But, if the truck has been neglected, or the body is rough, then I think $7900 is high. Don't get intoxicated by the low mileage. I'd rather buy a high mileage truck which has been cared for than a low mileage truck which has been ignored.
