Default Buying a 95 2wd

I found a 95 reg. cab 2wd, 168k, new front end, drag link, clean interior, clean ext. 2 1 year old 1000cca batteries, brakes,new hoses, belt, all fliuds, and a big ole ugly Leer cap, thats coming off!!! New rear tires, good front, fresh allignment, everything works, except the electric motor on the drivers seat, and the rear bumper has tounge marks , I'm paying $5000. I also get a brand new(in the plastic sealed still) p7100 IP from Cloumbus Diesel as a spare . Runs/rides smooth, I'm very happy it took me so dam long to find a truck. My buddie said it was high priced, but I feel the truck is super clean, I'll post picks soon!!! I'm gona need some gauges soon!!!

It's also got Goodyear air bags (which I know nothing about) with new shocks too

I will never ever ever ever buy another 2wd truck. pointless.

This truck was 2wd when I bought it because the front axle wouldn't slide into gear. I wrecked twice doing under 5mph. It's now welded together and runs through the differential all the time and only needs the transfer case to activate into gear. That'll get me through anything

Well, after I went through 2 front ends, on 2 new trucks at 50k and less,(01qc4x4 & a 04 rc 4x4), I'm done F'n with 4x4s.

You two remind me of one of those "demotivator" posters I've seen. Seriously hot babe in the photo, and the caption reads: "no matter how hot she looks, some guy, somewhere, is tired of her ****!".

The dude sold it because he wanted someone to appreciate the truck, he's not trying get drug money out of his truck. There are decent people left in this world. I can't help it I bought two, not one, but two new trucks and had f'd up problems with the front ends of both. That's my reason for sticking with 2wd, maybe someone got f'd on a truck, don't be hating on me because I found what I feel is a decent deal.

The dude sold because he found a clean 98 12v extra cab 2wd.
