Default Score!!

Well at least I think I scored a good find/price. 89 single cab long bed 2wd manual with 49k miles. No rust appears to be pristine condition. Got it from a guy who bought it at an estate sell. 11 miles put on between 1993-Present. All tuned up. Drove it home 3 hrs yesterday at 70-75 with no issues. Just need some tires..

89 still had the 5.1 digit odometer so who know how many times it's rolled over, 11 miles in ten plus years sounds more like 100,011 to me, not trying to rain on your parade and that may not even be the case, just letting you know. Any time I see a 5.1 digit odo I always assume that it's been rolled over at least once. On top of that it's very simple to switch one of those out with a different one.

Damn 5 digit odometers, I wish I knew how many times mine has rolled over. Doesn't really matter as the engine came out of something else but I'd still like to know.

Judging by that picture the low mileage seems reasonable. Good find dude!
