What’s the backstory on it?

Appears to be in pristine condition!

Was sitting for sale for a long time in a rural area southwest of Phoenix. I drove past it a few times on the way to my girlfriend's house. Saw a lot of people looking, but no one buying. Figured that he probably wanted way too much for it.

Saw the owner out one day taking down the sign so I stopped to find out if he sold it. Turns out his company was sending him overseas for 6 mos and he was going to put it into storage. He was second owner. First owner was his neighbor. Been an AZ truck its whole life - zero rust. 86K original miles. Needed A/C redone and a new headliner. I asked him what he was asking, and he said that he'd take $3500 just to get rid of it before he left. I handed him the $100 that I had in my wallet and told him I'd be back in 20 min with the rest.
