I going with a friend to look at a cummins for him, he doesn't know much about diesels, I do but more on the powerstroke side. All I know is it's a 01 ext. Cab auto with long bed and 200,000 miles and the guys asking 11,000. Is that seem about right on price? What should I look for as common problems?

Thanks

ask about the lift pump and vp44

 

Yep, ask how old they both are, and where the lift pump is. Intank, or block mounted.

Check for a 53 block:

It has a new injection pump, fuel pump and six. Pump. What about the price seem fair?

Little steep if you ask me with that many miles. But its not ridiculously high.

 

Thats what I was thinking does have two sets of tires.

Front end seems to be the only huge problem I've really heard alot about with friends trucks. Buddy of mine had a problem with the overdrive unit in his 01 but he thought the stock tranny aand wheel bearings would survive on 35s too . I'd offer less and see what he says, don't insult him just look for a little better deal

 

Ok it blue books here for around 9

How's the exterior and interior?

11 grand is a tad too much, especially when it books for 9 (assuming it's in great condition).

 

Yeah we haver gone to see it yet the guy has two jobs and I work shift work so it'll be Monday I believe, interior looked pretty good, exterior had a few scratches from pictures
