SouthDakota95F150

Hey guys, this Friday I'm going to look at a 1984 F150 and I need some opinions about the pricing. The truck is almost rust free (for a south dakota truck thats pretty rare), has some scratches here and there but mostly clean. Its a 4X2 with the 4 speed auto and a 302 with only 96,xxx on it. Fairly decent tires and he says there's no problems with the truck. The asking price is $1700 but I think that sounds kind of high. Should I shoot him an offer around $1200?? All of my knowledge is about 9th gen f150s so I dont know how to value the older trucks. Thanks in advance guys!

$1700 does seem high; I like your plan of showing up with $1200 (or less) in hand.... time to play up the 2wd pickup in the Dakotas angle!

Around here $1500.00 to $1600.00 would be almost "showroom" for that truck. I agree with the $1200 or less, and not having 4wd, for the winters there, could drop the price even more IMHO.
