Friend just bought a built 02 2500 with 80k on it for 13,500...21k seems way high for that truck...I bought my 03 with 110k on it for 14700, I'd either talk them down, or keep looking. just my 2 cents, though.

I picked up my truck for $14500 out the door two years ago with 90k on it. That is to high IMO. I would not pay more that $16000 for an 02, especially stock. Remember you are going to need to spend some money building up that auto. I would offer $13k and see if you can meet in the middle.

Well, this was my experience. I had an '01 F350 PSD Lariat 4x4 with forty some odd thousand miles on it that I sold to the high bidder about a year ago for $14,000. It was clean as a whistle. Now I don't know how that compares with Dodge trucks, but I would say they're roughly comparable.
