Look around some more, don't buy the first one you find. There are better units and less money avalible. My 2 cents

if its stock & hasnt had anything rebuilt recenlty i wouldnt pay that much to many miles for 6800 id offer 4000 or if he fixes about 4500-5000,also check the blow by,take cap off of where you built oil in truck & rev it to about 900-1100rpm if very little or no smoke comes out the engine is probaly in good shape if alot or if it hazes entire time you rev its come some wear from its miles
