Truck worth it?
I'm selling my 08 jeep unlimited rubicon to get another dodge pickup. I've only had the jeep for 5 months and have the cummins bug again. I'm looking at a 2002 with 70k miles, quad cab short bed. Based on VIN, it was built at the Lago Alberto plant in Mexico City. I think it can be mine for $15,000. I spoke with previous owner and he replaced LP and IP not long ago. Completely stock, no gauges (previous sentence makes that obvious), stock exhaust, etc... What do you think?
Thanks

I agree it sounds high, remember its a buyers market there is lots of people wanting out from under the payments . Do some more looking and make sure you are happy with what you are buying.

Wow, good luck on getting a 02 with that low mileage for 10k. If you get that 02 for 12k, you got a fair deal. Remember these trucks are 30k new. It is not even broke in. If it was 4x4 then 14k. IMO

I'd say that sounds a bit high (& I'm thinking Canadian peso).
but still, it may be a good truck if you can get the price down.
Check out for the beloved 53 block....

Plus 70k with a new LP and IP...could be a bunch of different reasons for that but I would look hard for a chip or the aftermath of one....
I would say if everything lines up, sun, moon, stars...then try 12 and stop at 13....
truth is, IT IS a buyers market, if you can come with cash or pre-approval from a bank...that is what is talking right now...not the BS of "well let me see what my bank says"

I spoke with the previous owner (he purchased the truck new) and he said it is bone stock, no straight pipe, no gauges, pulled a skidloader a few times. Problem now is that the dealer won't give me what I want for my jeep rubicon on trade.
