Here it is . . . not sure on the ultimate goal yet. I'd like to bag it but would like to take a ride in a bagged truck first to see how it rides. I'm sure I'll be asking plenty of questions in the suspension forum.

May have been . . . and it's definitely not nice, LOL. I bought it a few weeks ago out of Kansas. Over the phone I thought I was getting a good deal on a nice truck, after getting it 350 miles back home, I'm disappointed. Oh well, that's what happens when you agree to buy site-unseen. I'll probably sell it once I get my Subaru back on the road and buy a dually worth starting with.

What is wrong with it?

Literally, I was told only thing wrong with it was it needed one rear tire, rust was on passenger rear cab corner and it needed to be painted. He had good/clean title in hand.

In actuality it needed 6 tires (I found some used for $300), A/C compressor blew up the first time I tried to use it. Windshield was unusable, no door keys, locks don't work anyway, trans leaked about as fast as you could pour fluid in, check engine light comes on (O2 sensor code) when on highway due to no O2 sensor installed, had major exhaust leak due to wrong gaskets being used and crappy weld job on manifold, wipers don't turn off, cruise doesn't work, glove box was broke, missing interior pieces. I'm sure I'm missing things, this is just what comes to mind ATM. I finally have it road worthy but it has cost me an additional $1k that I wasn't anticipating so I'm bitter

Dude that sucks! I don't know if I would buy anything big off the internet anymore, after seeing all the crap people drag into us. They always think they got a good deal, but I haven't seen one yet.
