Bought this truck a couple weeks ago and I have come to the realization that it's NOT for me, it's too damned NICE.
All I'll do is wreck it by damaging it, or grease it up doing parts, it deserves better than that.
The previous owner bought it from a gentleman, who had it in California, about 8 years ago and he NEVER drove it in the winter.
For the most part, it was used to tow his drag car to the track in the summer, then garaged in the winter.
The truck is a 1993, 2wd, Extended Cab D-250, with just under 185,000 miles on it and it runs out GREAT.
The transmission shifts as it should, engine runs perfect, drives a little loose (steering shaft) and the brakes are stiff (bad booster).
The (gray) interior needs the usual dry climate stuff, the headliner cloth is MIA, all of the headliner trim is cracked.
The paint (Blue-Silver-Blue) still shines, though it does look like it's had some touch up on the topside and it's peeling in spots.
It has fairly decent bucket seats, console is MIA, but I have a nice one that comes with the truck.
Has a junk aftermarket stereo and a goofy aftermarket alarm that should be pulled out and shotgunned. LOL
Has a decent set of aftermarket wheels, shod with very nice 265-75-R16 tires, all of the spare tire stuff is present, even the spare tire and carrier under the bed.
Has the OEM dealer installed under-bed trans cooler, however, the previous owner disconnected the power wires to it before he realized what they were for, so they need re-connected.
The tailgate has a distinct BOW to it, though the trim panel is VERY NICE and I may have a nicer tailgate I can source for it.
I've owned this truck about 2 weeks, ran it almost 2500 miles and it's performed marvelously.
If someone buys it for my asking price, I'll throw in a Dealer tachometer and a nearly PRISTINE steering wheel with @ 2500 original miles on it, along with a very nice OEM grille shell.
Also included are a NEW Borgeson Steering Shaft, a new brake booster and a new master cylinder.
This is a very nice and clean truck, not a "survivor", but one of the nicer ones I've had pass through my hands and it's worth the money I'd like to see out of it.
The asking price is $6000.
I will have detailed pics of it up within the next few days.
