opinions needed whats your thought??
Was looking at this truck. Seems priced welll below value and was wondering if there could be a reason for it or if i should jump asap. I would have to trade my van off and will probally lose 2500-3500 on that so would end up getting out closer to 17k or so. Been trying to sell the van locally but not having much luck. So i would love opinions. Price just droped from 16,900 to 13,995. It has been on lot for over 3 months and guy on internet sales says they want it moved asap. I am trying to attach the link so hope it works. Carfax Shows one accident, but they say it still has clean title and guy says he dont know what the accident was?? Redlight? Thanks alot guys.

Thats the exact price I paid for mine with 100k but its an 04. Exact same package though. Seems reasonable as long as it runs perfect, and I mean perfect. Since I got mine the starter quit, needed new exhaust manifolds, oil pump, cam phasers, timing kit so about 3500 bucks in 10000 miles

screw04 man that sucks. I am a little worried at getting a truck with 128k miles and paying 14k for it. I hear good things about the motors though and hear if they are taken care of they will run forever. At the same time who knows how well it was taken care of?? Motor could have been covered in oil and dirt and shottenkirk cleaned it up and it could have been 10k miles between oil changes. lol you just never know what you get when you buy used unless you know who it comes from. Thanks for the responses though everyone it is greatly appreciated. Keep em coming.

I don't like wrecked vehicles at all. Check all the seams in between the body panels. If they don't line up, they hit something pretty hard. If they're all off, they hit HARD. Most people don't look for that, but honestly, I don't buy wrecked vehicles. Clean title means it wasn't totaled. Ask for maintenance records (some have full dealer records!). To be fair, my truck has one "wreck." my chrome bumper scraped the paint off of a Cheby bumper in a tight parking lot. Was so broke I had to submit it to insurance :/
