Nice truck my buddy just picked

[pittsburghracer]

1999 (V10) 3/4 ton truck. Southern bed, 99000 miles, new rear brake lines, inspected, Pa emissions. 3500.00. Paid 3000.00 for it and had it towed to a shop to put the brake lines on and change the fluids.

 

[Dan the man]

That's a nice truck and a awesome deal.

 

[MidnightSwinger]

So clean!

Nice truck, great deal !

 

[pittsburghracer]

He had it up over 100mph on the way home and said it ran great. Ohhh I forgot my buddy does transmission’s and this had 2500.00 in a new transmission before he bought it. He’s known the guy for years and he thought my buddy quit rebuilding transmission’s. Lol

It's nice to see there's still deals to be had.
That's a once in a lifetime deal.

Looks like zero body rust, thats a score for sure

Awesome looking truck. Put some sport headlights in it so he can see where he is going at night. Kim

Nice score!, those v10s are awesome engines all around, well except for gas mileage lol.

His buddy, a retired Pa state policeman has one that he tows his B1 race car and the fuel mileage he gets my buddy is satisfied with. Not great but not terrible either.

Got a good friend who loves those V-10 Rams. He's had a few. However, In the last 3 years... he's gone to a Caravan. MPG are a bit better.

Clean!! I have a few buddies with those v10's in tow rigs. They Love them

Had a few Caravans myself. My buddy bought and sold a ton of them at the local auctions.

Comparing them to a 95 dodge with a cummins and they are terrible, comparing them to modern hemi and they are within a few miles per gallon I'm guessing. Thing is they seem to do about the same mpg empty or loaded in the 4x4 model and they are heavy rigs for sure!.

My friend had on just like that for years and he loved it.

I should say I am a big fan of them for a gas powered tow rig, they are overbuilt and the engines last forever.

I've been driving Caravans for years, as a daily-driver. I actually prefer them to a car or truck. Lots of seating, or haul my race hemi engines [or anything else]. They'll do most anything.
