trading for a first gen?
 

i have the chance to trade my 96 even for a 1993 first gen 5 speed. this particular 1st gen was my first diesel ever and i kick myself in the ass everyday for selling it. and the guy wants to trade me. it is mint shape with a lot of motor work done. im strongly considering it... input?

we need more to go on then that?

1996 2500 ext cab long bed. mostly stock just a fuel plate and pump tuning with a boost elbow. auto, bodys in good shape.
trade even for:
1993 single cab long bed 5 speed with a hybrid turbo fuel pin completly rebuilt pump injectors 4 inch exhuast and a mint body candy apple red.
how much more do you need

mileage and both 4x4 or 2wd???

both 4x4 the 96 has 260k the the 93 had 280k when i sold it probably up around 290k now but its been competley gone threw since i sold it.

i dont personally like riding in a gravel truck so i would stick with the 96

the ride doesnt bother me at all. a trucks suppost to ride like a truck not a cadillac

personal preference at that point man. both rigs have high miles value will be similiar. if the older truck is partially restored and the 2nd gen is just a beat up old truck then i would prolly opt for the 1st gen myself.
