Asking $1995 and it’s from a DEALER no less. Good deal IMO, for anyone who’s looking for an affordable truck. Looks like a 6.5' bed, but at least it’ll be a bit easier to park for city-dwellers. I dig the patina and the modest hood dent. Lots of character.

That takes me back to college the first time around back in 2003.  I had a good friend with that red interior in a similarly early GMT400.  His red interior was paired with a two-tone dark red and silver exterior.  It was a pretty glorious color combination.

I just need to keep living like I’m in college (except I’m paying for a big blue child now). I have no mechanical experience, but wow. If I just keep telling myself I’m broke, I won’t do something crazy. There’s probably been six or seven cheaper vehicles I’ve considered since I got the Alltrack. Bad Under_Score, bad.

Never mind the GMC. Check out the white Lancia Aurelia saloon in the background. Lovely car.

The Lancia is gorgeous but it ain’t no $2k either!

That looks to be a W120 Mercedes.

Damn it, your right.

I was trying to figure out what series it was as the saloon didn’t come with a front end similar to the b24.

Seems like it's priced to sell. 300k miles on it? I think that particular generation of Chivvy truck is mind numbingly blah. And they drove like slugs on Quaaludes.

How about the old Mercedes parked next to the building?

 Actually, I wasn't being sarcastic at all. When I wrote that, I figured that lancia was some other car. So I spotted the Mercedes right away and wasn't sure what car the lancia might be.

Lol. I’ll let you off then.

It wasn't until I zoomed in close that I saw the Mercedes ornament.

Nice honest truck. My dad had a red '95 4x4. Unfortunately it had a boring grey interior, instead of the sweet red interior.
