What should I look out for?
If all goes well I'm heading up north on Saturday to check out a truck...it's a '99 3500 dually 4x4 with a 24 valve Cummins (of course) and auto. It seems pretty well optioned out, leather interior and all. It has 230,000kms (about 143,000 miles). What kind of problems and issues should I be looking out for specifically?

RE: What should I look out for?
on that year the main problem is the lift pump. Ask if it has been replaced. Also check the block casting number (lower left side). If its a 53 then you may want to steer clear. Those blocks are prone to cracking due to a flaw in the casting. If you do buy it, have the lift pump pressure checked.
