doesnt look to bad, but i am curoious on the 81000 miles thing. looks like a delivery truck. unless all their deliveries were nect door... i cant see that being right.


also it is a good year, last year for the 6.9, first year for the 5 speed, and the better glow plug system.

just hope it is 5 speed. if it is it is worth it.
