1999 3500 Dodge Cummins Used Buyer's Guide
I would be more concerned about the rest of the truck regarding the front-end, power train, and over-all truck maintenance, such as, power steering, brakes, and body rust. 300k for a Cummins is no big deal, especially if the Cummins has been maintained beyond oil changes.
For the year of truck, it sounds like a fair price. For additional things to consider, and help you decide on this particular truck, I would suggest you take a look at the TDR Used Truck Guide.
Since the late 90s TDR has compiled information on the Dodge/Cummins Turbo Diesel truck. Each year TDR updates the book. The TDR calls their manual the Turbo Diesel Buyers Guide which is free to down load, and the Buyers Guide allows you to do topic or word searches to help guide you to information and answers quickly.
Over the years there have been many changes to the Dodge truck and Cummins engine. For detailed information, I would suggest that you download the 300+ page PDF file “Turbo Diesel Buyers Guide” from the Turbo Diesel Register website (Turbo Diesel Register). Keep in mind that the information in TDR is written by Cummins parts and tech service personnel.
In this document you will find that they give you a concise answer to each question and often referenced detailed (often four to six page articles) where you can get more information. I think you’ll find the TDR answers and references helpful in this Buyers Guide. I did.
Hope this helps.
