I need some help
I'm selling my 97 1500 4x4 and wants to get a 2500 Diesel and this is the truck i'm interested in. Is it ok to buy a diesel with 109K+ miles on it? is this price ok/fair? how many miles should i expect out of the Engine if it is taken care of? Should i expect and probloms at these miles? Just let me know if u THINK that is a ok deal etc and yes i ca probly crack a deal with them.

That's a sweet truck. I just bought my 04.5 about six months ago for the same price, but it only had 73k miles.
To answer your questions: No 106k miles is not a lot for one of these trucks, especially if it has been maintained well. I think if you shop around a little more you can find one with less miles for the same price. I've heard of guys buying new 2008 Quad Cab 4X4's for only $30k - $32k.
If you decide to go after the truck, make sure you check it out thoroughly. Mine had many problems when I got it. I bought it from an autotrader ad as well. Good luck. Let us know if you have any more questions.

Hmm, yea about the miles i have heard that 106K is not bad at all and can expect alot more milesoutof theengineif it istakin care of. Around 70K milesfor that price would be nice. I know i will be expecting to pay more from a dealer ship but i might just have to go the way to insure a good truck *i know there not always the best even from a dealer ship* And right now b/c of the new year prices are all over the place.
So recap i can pick up a 2500, 03-04 MAYBE 05 with around 80K miles 4x4 5.9L turbo Diesel crewcab short bed * really want a manual * for around 21,000?
