should i buy this truck?

[kodie]

I can get this dodge for 2500. Its got 35's on it and I think a 3 inch lift not sure. Just seeing what you guys thought of it and if you think its a decent deal. Not sure on the year but its my step dads and he isn't home and it isn't unlocked, 130k miles power doors/windows auto tranny, And its got the 360 in it.

Also no dents or rust on the body, there is surface rust in the bed but that will be taken out and rhino lined.

 

And if I do get it the first thing is a paint job I got a guy who can do it for price of paint. Does anyone have any ideas of what might look good, or any kinda scheme/design?

It's a nice looking truck. Depending on what gearing is in that truck (whether the previous owner changed it or not) then ya fuel mileage will probably go down. Personally if you have looked at it, all underneath, checked out the front end, drive line, axles, that sorta thing and you like it, then go for it!! Friend of mine has a truck like that just not lifted and it has treated him fine for a couple years now. Just putting it out there, not all Dodges fall apart and are pieces of shit.

That looks like a pretty good truck there man. And if you are already talking about doing paint schemes, then you have already made up your mind. Haha. I am not a Dodge truck fan, but I will tell you that they look sick with a two tone paint.

Something like that, but because of the odd shaped hood and front fenders, it would look tits!

[kodie]

haha ya watson i think your right. I think i did make up my mind

[docjcwatson]

Here's a better example of what I was talking about. Notice how he brought the tone all the way up to the bottom of the hood.

ya that is pretty sweet but would it look good on a jacked up truck?

[sinbanshee]

i say get different wheels for sure 17s and 35s would look best and keep some mpg black wheels with a lock beed color matched to the truck would realy set it off

[docjcwatson]

Dude, lifted or not. Forget the chrome wheels and the slammed look.

 

That two tone looks great on that truck! It doesn't have to be expensive candy apple red or anything like that. Just a nice two tone job that will set it off.

Its a Dodge, dont buy it. Buy a Ford. There great trucks. Work beasts and great daily driver.

Oh by the way anyone want to buy an 02 ford250 crewcab longbed.

 

Seriously though Im not 1 of those people who trash talk other trucks. If it mechanically sound, the body is in good condition, and its whats you like and want. Buy it man. Oh and 1st thing you do is get rid of those bars on the bed. Those are fulgy. :biggrin:

 

That paint scheme is the tits
