    I like it, plus since you're going to school for it, you can use that knowledge to make it a nice hauling truck or if you want to make it a nice show truck, and just one simple question: what kinda motor she got?

    I think he's thought about that, and if the daughter's cute and at the legal age, then all is fine, I'd do that deal, a truck and a wife, only because the wife gives good reason to work on the truck from wake to sleep

    There are worse prices to pay, idk any off the top of my head but I'm sure there's a worse price than having to have a funer, I mean wedding with the daughter of the woman who gave you the truck

    One thing about a "free" truck. There is no such thing, this truck may have the right entry price, but may end upcosting you more than just the shirt off your back.
    That being said, I'd do it.

    Oh, wait, your from Cali. Your gonna go broke trying to make that thing CARB compliant, if its even possible. Ya may have to move to Nevada to keep ownership and not have to sink thousands of dollars into it to retrofit for compliance.

    I's still do it, take the free truck and marry the daughter.
    Good luck.
