Ain't This Purdy part 2

WOW 60K. That's a damn nice truck if you ask me. Why don't you like it?

I think it's a fine looking truck. I love this body style.

better keep a quart of oil under the seat, or run some amsoil.

Are you serious, do they use that much?

Might wanna buy Exxon stock too.

My ex-brother in law had one just like it only silver. He told me that he got 15 mpg combined.

Some were prone to oil consumption. All consumed gas nicely though. 15 mpg combined is a little hard for me to believe unless they had sails.

they typically use a quart per 3k miles of regular dino oil, but to be very honest that is there only pitfall, they are known to get smidge better economy than the 6.0l and have no mechanical failures also. internal hot rodding parts are limited too but that probly doesn`t matter to you.

If you run a synthetic they are less likley to slurp oil.

I would have to agree. I was lucky to get 13.5 combined out of my 5.7.

This truck looks like a good option.

I definately wouldn't be adding any extra HP crap to it. I've out grown the need for speed. I do like to be able to get out of peoples way though. Damn, I wish I could've avoided one.

My thoughts exactly.

4wd?

This is the truck you are getting. Done.

No Scott, it's 2wd.

I'm really liking this one to Tobias. The entire truck is sharp, inside and out. There are a couple of little dings here and there, and the passenger side mirror has a scrape on the plastic, not the actual mirror. This guy really needs to get ahold of me. He is only asking,now dig this, $6200.00. He said he is just in a financial bind right now, and just can't keep it.

Would you do something like this?
