never in a million years would I spend $15,000.00 for a nearly 13 year old truck your nuts brother.

for a 13 year old truck to have such little miles it must have been either an old man/woman's truck who drove to the grocery store once a month and never in the rain or it was an "around the house truck"

nevertheless those trucks have driven no where so at that price there had better Be not an ounce of rust...


that's my personal opinion I can find a better deal than that on Craigslist for a 04-08 body style I wouldn't spend more than 8,000.00 on a 97-03 regardless of the miles the trucks still 13 years old and depending on where you live... outside elements are ALWAYS working against frames,exhaust, tires... EVERYTHING

My math gets 10-11, depending on build date of the two trucks linked by OP.

A chump with a good point! I agree, I wouldn't spend near that much money on this gen. It's one thing if it's literally like-brand-new and is absolutely spotless, or something like a Lightning or HD. If not, you're better off looking for one with higher miles, or just get a different body style.

This is the body style I want. And you guys don't think it would be better to spend more and get less mileage?

What would be the highest mileage 03 you would buy if you planned on it being your daily driver and only vehicle for say 5 years? Just wondering. Because if a truck with over 100,000 will be reliable then I'd gladly find a better deal.

I would pay 13-15 depending on trim package and the condition of the truck with that low of miles.. Has to have ZERO rust. If he had a stack full of maintenance records i'd buy it in a heart beat.
