I have a hard time believing it. Even if it's true it dones to really matter considering what it looks like. But certainly worth the asking price :-)

Re: 18,000 actual mile C30 on clist

The engine is exactly one year younger than me! Not sure on miles but a lot of the bigger trucks didn't get a lot of miles. If I was closer I would be on it like a duck on a Junebug!

Re: 18,000 actual mile C30 on clist

Personally, unless mileage can be documented (i.e. consecutive repair orders showing mileage history or registration inspections, etc.), I NEVER believe any mileage on any vehicle with only 5 digits in the odometer. They could have been rolled multiple times and you'll never know. Don't get sucked into these "low mileage" ads.

You can also look at other key details. A big one is the rubber pads on the pedals. A true low mileage truck/car will show slight wear but be close to new. Most over 75,000 will look warn out. Paint on the steering wheel, areas where the keys rub when driving, seat material, etc., etc.

It's all in the details. Looking at this one, I bet rolled once or more on the odo.

What Mike said. Seats don't start tearing w/ so few miles, and the brake pedal pad is gone.

There's a unicorn for sale down in Waycross. Not the ordinary white one, though. This one is the much rarer pinto.

This same truck was listed last year on CL (and here) but I can't find the thread at the moment.

Re: 18,000 actual mile C30 on clist

Ive been watching this truck. Its a re-post, not 7 days old.
About a month or older, figured it was to good to be true, a scam or FUBAR.
BE CAREFULL.
Oh, I forgot... this is Laurens county, cops dont play.

Re: 18,000 actual mile C30 on clist

I've seen this one before also. I too tend to doubt "low" mileage on 5 digit odometers but if this was a farm truck, I have seen worse wear on low mileage trucks. It looks as if it spent most of its life outdoors and as Mock1 can attest, central/south Georgia is hot and humid in the summer (which seems to last from April to late October) and it takes its toll on paint and interior components.

Yeah, really. It's humid here year round. The only state where you turn your heat on in the mornin and ac in the afternoon, with 80% humidity all day.

Nice to see someone go look at a truck and see it for themselves, instead of just speculating here and throwing stones. Glad to hear you got it

Re: 18,000 actual mile C30 on clist

We had several of these C30s in the 60s and 70s on the farm with less mileage and far worse condition. Great buy!
