sound good to me, although around minnesota they ask alot for old 4x4 trucks. Just check the leaf spring hangers, raidiator mounds/front body mounts (allmost gone on mine). I had to do 2 leaf spring hangers. They chemical/salt the sh*t out of our roads

I would go to www.edmunds.com they have a great used car value estimator that gives you the value based upon your regional location. Trucks down here in Texas go for a higher price because they are typically in high demand as us Texans love our trucks! Also, they don't rust out down here for decades unless you are using them on the coast or something. Edmunds.com will let you put in every detailed option and then you will see the different prices for wholesale, private party and dealer retail. I would start at the wholesale price and go up from there.

- XLT
- Color matched bed lid
- 5.0
- auto
- double gas tank
- lumbar seats
- power side mirrors
- cruise control
- air conditioner
Some cons about the vehicle:
- oxidation on the trunk lid two spots, also the hood is about to start oxidizing on the driver side a bit. I was thinking i could get it repainted however. is it hard to find stock Ford paint in these older colors?
- The headliner has some rips in it, i tried looking for new headliner on ebay but i didnt see any options.
- the shifter on the auto transmission has tape around it seems like the plastic cracked near the overdrive button.
Advice?
