agreed way over priced. Whats wrong with your truck now? i say if there is nothing majorly wrong with it keep it. With the economy its helpful to have a paid off vehicle and have "$6200" for back up, home/vehicle improvement etc.

Thats my plan.... its hard waiting haha. I really want a 3rd gen cummins as i like how it looks... But the 2nd gens are cheaper and i think run and last longer. I want a red/maroon club cab 4x4 single wheel swb 6 speed H.O 5.9 cummins lol.

They really arent that hard to find. Hit up ebay, some are local. As for the 3rd gen, if you only went up to 2004 they wouldnt be too bad. $15,000 would be able to get you a good 4 door. Might have to look around for a bit, but you could find it.

Edit: idk if you could but in my mind you could put that bumper onto a 2nd gen cummins. Idk for sure though, just would make sense to me.

That's over priced for a truck with that much damage. Around here 7,500 could get you a nice 12v with a 5speed.

Heck no! 12v 5spd trucks are as low as $4500 in good shape around here... Autos as low as $3600 on the dealer lot. Kinda makes me sick for paying $8k for mine 4 years ago, but then again it was a California truck with low miles (for a diesel) and I thought I had money as a single Lance Corporal with no bills lol.

Nope, there was a really nice 96 5spd with a fresh coat of paint and no bondo for $5k a little while back... People are just that broke around here with the AG economy the way it is, that people need to price things to sell.
