Try Edmunds.com. I've found them to be pretty good.

Check the front end components - ball joints/control arm bushings etc - with a fine tooth comb. My buddy had to replace all the components on his '94 about 6 months ago.

How much 5'wheeing did the owner do with the '94? Only 50k on a '94 is really low. My '98 had that much when I bought it in y2k!

I can't really put a price on the truck, but its just like mine except mine is a five speed. I bought mine new and its still like new at 80,000. Haven't had any front end trouble or anything else major. Its been a great truck and I would never part with it. At the very low miles on that truck, it would be worth a premium if its been taken care of.

The fellow selling the truck has a great story.



He had parked the truck at a friends location and was asking $16K. Got two offers a month ago at $15k and turned both down.



He relocated the truck to another friends yard and is asking $15K. My son offered $13,500 and he countered at $14,400.



My son passed on the truck. It needs a new set of tires. Tread looks good, but has definite belt separation. Other than being a little weak compared to my 2002, it is a great looking and driving truck.



Thanks everyone for your inputs.

I paid $7500 a year ago for my 94 2WD 3500 5-speed. I've put a couple of thousand into it (tires, ball joints, shocks, AC evaporator) and it's a great truck now.

Sounds good, almost too good. only 50K miles on a truck that's 8 years old? As we can all attest, I look for any excuse to drive my truck anywhere. If that mileage is true, the owner only drove 521 miles a month or 6,250 miles a year. Hey it could happen, but I'd be suspicious. Go over it with a fine toothed comb. If all seems to check out, I think the price is within reason.

I have a neighbor who has an older Ford PSD ('95) and he only has 38K on it. He ONLY drives it to pull his travel trailer (I also don't think he goes very far )

price range

saw a 96 and very cherry for asking 14500 . This is one owner truck and I have seen it around here since it was new. owner hauled light loads of office furniture to his shop & painted them for resale so it's not like it was pulling weight all the time.

This is the kind of truck you see right after you buy a new one after you can;t find a good used one :{

There's a decent looking 94 std cab with a matching cap just up the road from me. It's red with a driftwood center band. I think theyre asking 10K. It's been for sale for at least a few months now. If I remember correctly, it has 175K miles on it.

If youre really interested in it, I can go look at it. It's just a few miles from me.

I think it's an auto trans.

My son has kind of put everything on hold for now.



Thanks for all the responses.



BTW - the truck has been babied and is very clean. My 2002 has more scratches and a big dent by a hit 'n run low life sorry... . don't let me get started. I don't doubt for one minute that it only has 50,000 miles.



It's dark red with the driftwood center stripe.
