4x4 or 2wd?

Either way, I'd say that as long as it drives good, $1000 is not bad.

Anything reliable for 1K is good. 15/20 mpg w/ a stock Ignition system & the rest of the engine is healthy. It is a supercab & tire size will play into it. It's capable of more!

I'd check the reputation of whoever rebuilt the engine. if its some backyard mechanic, that's iffy. If you don't mind putting the work into if the engine would happen to need rebuilt again or if it was rebuilt by a pro, i'd say go for it! You can't beat that price especially with the exhaust 4wd and supercab
