The odometer broke at 67,000 and change; it had already been around there once before and I guess it had well over 300k on it when we parted company. I bought it used with 40k miles on it for 6500 bucks, replaced the clutch at around 150k and otherwise maintenance expected for that kind of miles. In-line 300 inch engine still ran like a top, I just couldn't see putting $1200 into tranny work. They'll go a long way if you'll go with them!Mickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00621330144399601329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3861875.post-55434650745175908772011-07-27T19:04:34.723-04:002011-07-27T19:04:34.723-04:00I've got an '01 and I'm going to drive...I've got an '01 and I'm going to drive it until the wheels fall off. Then I'm going to go to the dealership and pick out a nice used 3-year-old truck that's depreciated to about 15K. Cash for clunkers killed off the good clean used vehicles for a year or so, but the market should pick back up before I'm looking for one.Pawpawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14959820068377494313noreply@blogger.com
