    Congrats on the first truck! As has been mentioned on this site used trucks are kind of a crap shoot. However if you are going to play the game, then 19k for a decent truck sounds like the way to go. Congrats again!

    The interior was well taken care of beside a broken arm rest on the passenger seat that's all, new mattress and a bed bug treatment and a bath of Lysol. God knows who was the driver and his habits will be a must

    Cool...you sure it's a 14.0 / 455 hp? Doesn't sound like something SNBC would own....just saying.......miles seemed a lil short for them to be turning it loose too. That's why I said ECM check for hours and miles.

    But a good deal bud.....don't get a radio til you get it painted tho...... they gonna bust ur balls on sesame street......

    Congrats.....

    Hey, paint the top of the hood and the front fenders black and it could pass for a Duie Pyle truck...

    Either stick Titan decals all over the truck or put a reber flag sticker on the roof and "01" on both doors.
