If that were local to me, I'd be on it like a duck on a June bug!

I bought my current Ford truck with 192K miles on it, for $4500.
Now at 223K (?) and still runs like new.

If you don't mind an older truck, I'd hold out for something cheaper.
I paid $4200 for a 12 year old F250 with 79K, no problems and not a
speck of rust.
He's going to haul his family around with it - finding GOOD older
trucks at a reasonable cost in about 75% of North America is like
finding a needle in a haystack.
Either they've had the snot driven out of them by some kid, they've
had the tail worked off of them or beat to heck as a working truck,
they've been abused and neglected, or they've rusted away.

And yet they are available if you can afford to be patient. I found
mine here in coastal Maine, which is about as bad as it gets for road
salt and rust.
