If the frame is rust-free, that is a plus.

I agree, if no rust then it's a deal.

For sure! Body and frame being in good shape, I'd jump on that for 600. Engines are a lot easier to repair or swap than body panels and frame work any day!!!!

Good Score!! :gapteeth:

Why cant I find those steals? Lol those bed rails and tail lights probably ran close to $600 new! Let us know what the prognosis is on the ticking noise. Could be just a lifter, or more likely a few broken manifold bolts leaking. :cool:

nah its the infamous Vq30e Valve tick will come apart before winter and get fixed. I did alot of research on the valve tic issue its a common problem with tha motor. But when i drove it, it pulled nice. and the 4 wheel drive works great lol. I picked it up for the winters in Colorado. (the 240 has summer tires and im not even gonna try it )

Id borrow $600 just to buy! I'm a big fan of this trucks!! There's a website where you can buy those and many more tail lights, I think the most expensive set are the LED's for $160!!
