The only problem I see is getting it home. I've got a trailer with 4 flat tires big enough to haul it, but it hasn't been registered in years. I can't pull the truck with my Ranger, it's wayyyyy too heavy. I can ask someone at work if they can, my coworker has a dodge 1500 with the 5.7, but idk if he has a trailer hitch. It's a 120 mile one way trip to 240 round trip. If I get it for 300 then I'll be pretty strapped for cash, and I've gotta rent a trailer. I'm thinkin I can talk to him, see if he will unlist it and wait about 3 weeks and then I won't be worried about it because I'll have 2 checks. If he does, that would be awesome. I'm not too worried about someone else buying it because to someone who may not know what they're looking it, it looks like a pile of junk. My worry is that someone is going to get it before me, but idk. I may take the trip out there and see it in person and talk to him. I want it, bad.
