    I would say buy a truck from an honest individual and you may have to shop around to find that. I have not stepped on a truck in 28 years.

    a truck with 800k miles on no thanks you'll more than likely be doing an overhaul on it real soon wich is not cheap. why do you want an intertrashonal:rolleyes:o_O. what engine the intertrashonal engine or the isx??? i would run like hell if it has the international engine those are nothing more than boat anchors!!! i would go for a castacrap with the DD15 lower maintance costs and parts are available most of the time so no down time while waiting for parts in most cases. and will the truck pass a DOT inspection. i'm curious as to how much they want for it? i would run like hell from a truck with 800k miles on it unless the had the engine overhauled already. but this is just me.

    Pardon Our Interruption

    the trucks here have less than 800k miles seem like a good deal. then there's a few i would avoid.

    do they have paperwork of all the maintnance that's been done on it. i don't know how wal mart takes care of there trucks. but then again at 750k miles you really need to start thinking of a rebuild for that isx. are you good at haggling??? because i would haggle the price down if you could that's to much..
