Ok I need some advise here! I am in the market for a new/used(probably used to get it cheaper) and need some tips on how to buy a used diesel truck.

I have been looking at these two trucks on ebay:

Are these trucks pretty good? Or is it worth buying a $36000 new diesel instead of used??
THANKS,
Austin

 

Also I see a lot of used diesel Rams (05-06 models) that are over 100,000 miles.

What is the limit to were I should buy a diesel truck used? I know there rated up to 350,000 miles... but what is a good milage to buy at?

Thanks,
Austin

 

for me...a reasonable price was between 18,500 and 23,500...and my milage i was looking for was between 75,000 (rare) and 130,000 (a lil higher then normal)

 

i liked the blue one at 24,500 miles. however, it does show that it has a salvage title. I would investigate that closer being that it says you will get a clear title in 2-3 weeks. So i dont know.

 

How exactly can a title go from salvage to clear??

More opinions please... I want to know what yall think about the first one(black sport with 140000 miles)

Thanks guys!
Austin

 

I like the black one, I would find out if it is a 04 or a 04.5. There is a difference

 

What is the difference and how to I find out?

 

Not 100% sure of the difference, but I know when mod shopping there is a specification for 04.5 and 04 trucks. the 04.5 has a lot more power mods available. The guy had a phone number on the add, Call him.

 

You sound like you've had lots of experience calling guys from ads jimmy. Is that how you and sharx met

 

It all started on the craiglist personals. there was sharx wearing his famous outfit
