I want your opinion on my new truck...

[lil red]

i still think the 2nd one, itl take less work, fuel lines are cheap and easy, and there should be another good tire under it(spare, if not ur b2 is the same wheel pattern)

Either one I get, I'll be swapping my BII wheels, and almost new AT's that still have all the air in them even after sitting for 6 months... I think I'm going to have to go with the 1st one, being that it's about an hour away from me, where the 2nd one is almost 2 hours away...

I might be doing the unlimited carfax because I'm trying to sell my car and buy a truck and since carfax is like 20 bucks for 1 and 30 for unlimited I might be able to help you out

 

[rjppunk]

get me the vin numbers and I'll tell you what the real mileage is

You should call them both and find out a little more. If the first one didn't pass emissions, the shop that tested it should have told them what they thought it was that was causing it. The people with the second one with fuel line problem, they could be understating the problem. I never trust what people say when they are trying to get rid of an old vehicle they don't want anymore. Unless it has a hole it the line, how do they know that's what it is. If they think it's just clogged and don't know much about fuel systems, it could be one or more of many fuel system issues. Wouldn't it suck to get it home and find out it's the pump, filter and injectors that need r&r. Use your judgment and don't buy because of what it looks like in a picture, you will regret it. Good luck man.

I plan on calling them today... Emissions really doesn't bother me, the county I live doesn't require testing... I was worried that if the fuel lines were rusted out, then i'm sure the frame would be pretty rusty too... I plan on keeping it for a while, and I have plans to either rebuild, or buy a rebuilt motor, and tranny, convert it to 4x4 and pretty much just freshen it up I just need something quick to get me to summer...

1.) Don't you have to pay for a Carfax?
2.) How do they know what the mileage is?

Yes, but I have an open account currently.

They capture the mileage anytime it is sold, gets a new lein, ends up at auction, or passes/fails emmisions testing. Then they list the years it was registered without recording the mileage. If truck #2 had 95,000 miles in 2004, and was registered in 05,6,7,and 8, you pretty much know 100K is BS.
