Tonight's not over yet. 8) The trucks a 91 non I/C D-250 auto. 193--- miles. Its got new tires and brakes and the tc is in tolerable shape (for a stocker). Other than the rust it appears to have been maintained very well. The guy we bought it from was the second owner - his dad bought it new off the lot. They used it primarily to haul the camper in the picture. Dad going to take the camper and I get the truck. $3,000 for the truck and camper sound reasonable? 8)

Thats what we thought. I wasn't planning on buying a truck this week, but when my brother found this on craigslist, we figured we should at least check it out.

Good deal if you ask me. The tires and motor alone would satisfy the difference from what farmboy quoted you
