Should I buy this truck for $1000?

I can get this truck for $1000.

Was running but not too well, since previous owner installed intake manifold with RTV and no gaskets. Big leaks.

Top of motor is off, but included in sale.

Deal, or no deal???

Looks like a hell of a deal for a grand. I'd give that for it in a second.

Re: Should I buy this truck for $1000?

It's an automatic. No way. Where's the fun in one of those?

(Although I really feel that way, I'm just trolling you "modern" men )

Try to talk him down a bit and if you want it and you think you can fix it up easily, go for it.

Offer him 800 and I bet he grabs it and runs. Definitely a nice truck to start with

Re: Should I buy this truck for $1000?

Wow! you had too ask us.
Please don't ask your wife if you can have it.

just take the day off and go get it.

Then on your way home stop and get a few lottery tickets and give a few too her and keep your fingers crossed.

Re: Should I buy this truck for $1000?

I'd give him $1010 so he could buy himself lunch...

No reason to lowball this one, he already lowballed it.

Good luck, Rg
