Quick rundown of the truck:

- 1995 XLT
- 2.3l, 5 spd manual, 2wd
- Air conditioning (working)
- Power steering
- has aftermarket CD player in it
- sliding rear window
- has bed topper
- 15" Explorer rims on it w/ 215/75/15 all season tires

I recently put two new headlight housings on it and replaced an exhaust gasket. The core support is rusted out and the area of the bed floor above the gas tank is rusty and not attached to the frame so therefore it is loose in the driver side front corner of the bed. As far as I can tell, the other mounts are solid. Shackles and spring hangers are solid as far as I can tell. Cab floor pan is solid as well. I paid about $2400 with tax and registration at a small used car dealership. What do you guys think?

This is the only current pic I have of it:

Miles? Also it depends on location, a vehicle with any rust at all is practically worthless, on the east coast you might get twice the money

1000 maybe. I had a chance to buy an 02 that was a 2.5 with 115k on it for 1200. Still kicking myself for not buying it.

Props on the South Park reference.
But seriously, where I live ppl are crazy with their prices. A truck like that would run bout 2000-2500 + 1000 if you rig up a lift and put some big tires on.

:icon_rofl:(still laughing)

I was thinking along the lines of $1800-2000. Private sellers tend to overvalue cars and trucks where I live. Which kind of sucks. A lot of you guys would be very surprised by the prices at which vehicles sell here. But whatever. And yes, this truck currently has 191k on the clock.

Come here and you will find something like that for at least $2700. And it will still sell. You are lucky if you find something with no rust.
