Default Worth it?

Marlin Motors - Used cars in Duncan BC, Canada

half a million KMS on it (cdn dollars to)

is it really still worth it? went to go look at it as soon as it got in and its a little on the beat up side theres a crack on one of the rear fiberglass panels fuel fill covers front end could be tighter and there was a light or two on the dash and the interior is dirty (low budget used car dealership) i asked about ther light and they said somthing abvout a wire going to the IP i think the 4x4 worked trany shifted smooth...on one pull off a light it felt like it had lots of power but then everything after that felt pretty bland..maybe i just wasnt use to power when compared to my 6.5 but got use to it quick.

id really like a 6 speed 12 valve ex cab dont really care for the dually but every one seems to want a pot of gold for anything in somewhat decent condition and the 12 valve bodys are certinly getting on in age...also id like to play with fuel plates but might have to bite the bullet and start playing with computers right away...

for that kind of mileage I think the $ is a little high,before you play with a computer on a 24v get a good lift pump(airdog,....)and a fp gauge or a tuner with one
