Hi bubba, I would say it's pushing it. Depends how it has been treated really.

For a diesel it wouldn't be too bad but a petrol engine is really only good for 300,000 or thereabouts then it will need a rebuild, unless it's really been looked after.

Best to do an mechanical check and get the compression tested etc...

How much is it?

Shouldn't be any more than $2K :shock:
Is it wrong to love your truck this much?
