My dad's friend has an 05 Auto diesel 4wd 4door for sale for pretty cheap...think he's asking like 15K OBO and I'm thinking he's fairly negotiable on that price (like 14ish). Has 100,000 miles.

blows my mind the people willing to take a 10K hit unloading these trucks to save 80 cents a gal. at the pump. It will take them a long time to make up that $$ driving a smaller vehicle. I need to go buy a new truck from one these people......hmm crew cab would be nice.

Well this guy is indeed selling his truck to get rid of the diesel bill, but his truck was used as a commuting work truck, so it's got it's fair share of dings and scratches (nothing major, no accidents, just not a 100% Excellent shape truck), so that's part of the reason for the price in this case. Plus the 100,000 miles in 3 years...

JCaldwell - Passed one sittin on the side of Rt 8 for sale, yesterday. I think it was in Riner, but at that point I'd been on the road for 2 hours and everything has sorta blurred together...newer white 2500...not too far of a drive to go check out (or to go see just how bad/wrong my memory is).

If I remember right (again, I'd been on the road for a while at that point and my head was a little fuzzy from the race :beer: ) it was between the gas station and the school in a parking lot on that same side of the road (Right hand side heading South), in Riner. Could be wrong.

Didn't really notice much other than: for sale sign, 2500 dodge.

Could be a gas automatic for all I know...Best of luck :mrgreen:


I'm actually headed back over the mountain tomorrow night, so I'll get a phone number off of it and peek in the window for 2 or 3 pedals, etc.
