    You know thats not that bad of a deal. $12000 aint bad at all. wonder what the reserve is. Im thinking of bidding on it. Worst that could happen is that it will need a new motor and tranny, and thats about 10k. 22k for a new truck aint bad. what do ya think?

    im willing to bet that that motor is perfect.

    I think it would be a heck of a buy. Im sure it still runs fine, all those miles on an 02 would have to be all highway miles. Even if you had to put a new tranny an engine, you'd still have a great truck at a good price. waytogo Let us know what you end up doing!!!

    having problem convincing the wife, but I called and asked if he'd take 12k even, but il bet hed go lower towards the end of the auction. always at a time when im broke. Now if i had the money, id never find a good buy like this. credit union wont even finance it because of the miles.

    Get it for 12, put a new tranny and motor in it and you would be in just as good or better shape than the same truck for 22K that has 150K on the clock.

    Not bad ending price, whoever got it got a heck of a deal. Now just put in a 12V when it goes caput and get another 600K out of it.
