I'm gonna say go for it..... Surely you can get him to maybe 18,500 maybe.... Then a lift pump, clutch, guages and you a great truck that will last forever and also the best sounding pickup out there.... even better than 12 valves in my opinion.... what interior does it have???? hopefully leather power heated seats..

It was an SLT with cloth, but power everything else. No sliding rear window though :-/ And it just sold. Some rich guy (or stupid) bought it for $20k (21,500 TTL). Looks like I'm sticking with my 7.3L .

I appreciate the input guys. I could have bought it but as soon as my parents AND a few veterna Cummins gurus said it's too much, I said no on it. Y'all saved me $21,500! Thanks!

Retail was only like $17k, so you definitely wouldn't have been getting any kind of amazing deal even if you jewed him down to 18k.

Sounded like a real nice truck but I agree 21,000 too much 16,500 reasonable thatas maximum value for that,But don't discount your 7.3 yea a few miles on it but proven

Good move passing that one up. Way too much money. I'm a hard core Cummins guy but that 7.3 will take a Pretty good beating and the Ford trucks hold up well also.
