well i just go back from the dealer. over all its in decent shape for its age. the body has one dent at the top of the bed on the pass side(i could live with that). but there are alot of little scratches all over the place. on the diver side bed panel around the wheel well it looks like someone scraped it. i could get i would say about 85-90% of the scratches out with some compound and a buffer. the interior was perfect. very clean. no rips in the seats, no stains, and wasnt faded or anything like that. i was very impressed by the inside. here is some more about it:

now for all the service that it needs.
-from what i could see it either needs rear brakes or it will be due soon
-needs an alignment
-needs four tires
-needs a coolant flush(still has dexcool in it. im not a fan of dex)
-trans fluid looked preety good and didnt smell bad, but i would still do a service to it.
-also could use a brake flush
-i would also do all the driveline fluids just because i dont know if they have ever been done before.(front/rear diff and transfer case)
it doesnt look like it has ever been in an accident before. the sales guy didnt seem to know that much about the truck. he ran my credit for me and said that i you be approved for the loan. they wouldnt talk about the price to much with me because i wasnt ready to finalize any deals right then and there. he asked me if i had a number in my head and i told him 11-12 thousand. he said that they could work with me but he wasnt that sure about that price. so im up in the air on this one right now. i understand that its not a brand new truck. i know that anything that is in my price range will need some work. the good thing is that i am a mechanic so i wont have to pay for any labor, just parts. check out the pics on their web site. let me know what you think.
