Default Good Buy...?

1991 Dodge W350 12 valve diesel 5 speed diesel

Now, this pickup is located nearby but haven't been able to get in touch with the owner, yet. Now, I am in need of a dually especially since pecan harvest time is gettin near and will be towing a thirty-foot gooseneck loaded with MF 50E w/shaker, harvester, the works. And long term, it'll be used around the farm and DD duties. so, as it stands, what do yall think? I'm thinkin it's a bit too much, but only cause I don't know the condition of the pickup. Comments or suggestions please.

seems high and 119,000 original miles seems kinda fishy too me... i would say go for it at 4700- 5200... if everything is in good condition..

Update, talkin to the guy and here's what he's tellin me,
"Hx35 turbo, came as a non intercooled engine, I put an intercooler in it, fuel pumpis turned up, very minor, 4" straight pipe into 6" tip just redone, new transmission mounts, fairly new motor mountsm new tie rod ends, tires are still pretty good, new paint new windshield, the bed has been painted with herculiner top and bottom, new mud flaps. I'm the third owner, first owner had it til 115,000 miles as a farm truck, second owner a dad bought it for his son and the kid didn't want it so I bought it from them. I can do better if you are serious, Engine is great as far as I know. I drove it as a dd for a while cuz I was doing a bunch of work to my other truck. I haven't anything about it yet (KDP)"
