Ok...got a guy looking at my truck. Said he will trade his truck plus $13k cash for mine.

What he has-

1998.5 3500 DRW CTD 24v... Long bed extended cab. Its has 190,*** miles on the body and tranny (stock auto tranny) and 15,*** miles on a fresh rebuilt engine. He said the previous owner rebuilt the engine.

The body is perfect...complete rust repair and paint. Rust repaired the right way...no bondo.

Stock everything...never had a tuner on it.

What are something I need to look for. Says it has a new lift pump but I'll prob be upgrading it anyways.

Here is a picture of here...beautiful truck. I've still gotta decide if I want a DRW or not.

thats a nice looking truck, but....not sure I'd want the extra expense (tires) and fun of a dually.

But for a UN-molisted truck that had no tuber or rode hard ... its worth it .

He could still be driving that truck at 1 million miles while yours puked 4 motors

Braydon , make sure you get paperwork on the rebuild . and ask why it was rebuilt .

schroederMP · Jul 17, 2012

He said the rebuild was bc of something dealing with an oil line messing up. He has all the paper work/pictures on the rebuild.

I just dunno if I want a duelly lol or a stock tranny

Dually aren't to bad
You cant really go to much bigger of a tire since they will rub in the rear which makes tires a little less expensive and easy to find cheap on craigslist

schroederMP · Jul 18, 2012

Well you've seen my trucks....you wont stay stock! lol

ramhunter9 · Jul 18, 2012

Sounds to me that you should keep your truck since its already built the way you want it .

But if ya had to .. ya that truck I would buy

schroederMP · Jul 18, 2012

You know why I getting rid of my truck... I don't need the payment anymore. I'd keep it if it was paid off. I can afford it, but what happened made me realize that having a newer nicer truck with a payment was unneeded

ramhunter9 · Jul 18, 2012

I know , and I said .. I would get that truck . It has been takin care of and looks bad ass

I hate duallys. That being said, sounds like a pretty sweet deal!

Hows the interior etc? Those are the things that can get really hard to fix.

schroederMP · Jul 18, 2012

Interior has been re-apolstered(sp)...its in good shape. Cracked dash...but I'd prob get that dash cover like Dave has

My big pet peeve with dually are most of them are modded in a tasteless manor, most so they can't be used in a manor they were built for. Tere are alot of farm trucks around me that are pretty damn nice an I know my buddies third gen 3500 is a blast to drive
Why don't you like them?

infernoredram · Jul 18, 2012

Sounds like a sweet deal! Just throw some OEM wheels on there..

schroederMP · Jul 18, 2012

He has the oem wheels....just waiting to see if you got approved for the cash

RYAN66 · Jul 18, 2012

I love your current truck. However if you are needing the DRW and no payment then it would definitely be a smarter choice.

ummm........you act like I keep trucks long, or drive a lot of miles? LOL

I sold my 08 with 11700 miles on it. My 10 has 13800 on it now........but I'll probably keep her until she's got 30? LOL
