What's your limit on buying a truck and mileage

[GrayStangGT]

We run our 6.0 3/4 ton chevy/GMC work trucks to 180-200k with minimal issues and these are used and abused oilfield trucks from the day they roll off the lot. So if the price is right I wouldn't worry too much about anything with 120k or less, depending on how long you plan to keep and drive it.

If youre spending $15k on a truck I would look into a brand new one. Ford usually has the extended cab short bed stx trucks on special for $18,900 every few months.

It have to be a 5.0 if it's a Ford, or at least 5.3 GM.

2wd or 4wd.

I just got a 08 silverado 4x4 lt extended cab for 18k with 70, 000 miles

I'm looking for a good deal on a extended, quad cab. Either way, 2wd or 4wd, the truck will be lowered.

Probably, correct me if im wrong but I think they stopped making8ng the 4.6 motors all together. Gm also tends to run the same offer I wouldnt mind the 4.8 from gm its a solid motor

Ford stopped using the 4.6, but I'm pretty sure all STX's are V6's. I would definitely look at new truck if I could get one for $20k.

I like my F150 Supercrew Lariat 4X4 loaded with 124k on the odo for a 2002 and I would drive it anywhere. I love the truck and it is paid for.

Agreed. My 97 f150 4x4 is 177k on the odo and drives like new. Looks good too. Oh, and also paid for.

Good thread, as I'm in the market myself. Chevy/GMC/F-150 Crew Cab with no center console. I was thinking $20K and haggling down. Anybody know what's the norm on going down on trucks?

Good info....I'm about to sell my '11 Grand Cherokee that has 71XXX on it and I was a little nervous that the mileage would be an issue. Seems like the miles aren't nearly as scary as they used to be.

Damn I wish I didnt care about mileage. http://fw.to/SH58XfM

Try picking up the saturday dallas morning news. Lots of new car auto ads

according to commercials I would pay 19k for an ecsb truck and 24k for the king cab. These would be 2x4 models

my dad got an stx with a v8 but that was a few years ago

Testing the waters on my Deuce. Lol, I know this isnt for everyone (because everyone isnt a man haha).

1966 M35A2
Bobbed
53 inch tires
Multi-fuel turbo diesel engine

Ive owned it for the past 4-5 months, since then I have cleaned the fuel system, rebuilt the air pack, cleaned the injectors, replaced every filter on the truck and it has two brand new optima yellow top batteries and have been relocated in the bed.


The truck needs work on the electrical system, I have a brand new 3 lever switch that will come with it. IMO, id buy a new front wire harness and be done with it ($200 from surplus stores)


The truck fires up insanely great, and stops like a champ. I have driven it around town and people literally stop and just stare at you haha



It is street legal. Texas Blue title and insured.


Top speed 45-50 mph



I have a ton of pics, im located in Baytown, text me anytime 281-660-0666


$10, 000 OBO (very open on offers)

Trades? RZR XP 900 4, plus cash on my part

Just for comparison..... my dodge has an 8 inch lift on 38s

Fuel mileage?

I paid $13.5k for my 08 Sierra CC SLE last year with 135k miles. Mileage was a little higher than I wanted but it was a one owner with all service records and in great condition.

Looks just like my truck, I love mine.
