Default Mileage info

Hey guys,

Im looking at trading my 02 single cab for an 01 quad cab 4x4.
My problem is that the 2001 has 271'000 miles on the 5.9 magnum.
Is this kinda mileage crazy and should I stay away? It had a rebuilt tranny and apparently has its fluids changed every 3k and all that.

Opinions..? Thanks!

271K?? Unless it's $500, personally, I'd stay away from it.

+1 Whats your main reason for trading down a year, the extra seats and 4x4? If your hearts set on it I would drive it freeway and around town, and take it to a reputible mechanic or atleast one you trust and give it a nice look over.

Some more info about your current ram would be helpful. How long would you plan on keeping the 01 for, and are you capable of working on it?
