Default Hope I Don't Regret It!

Just upgraded my '79 K10 with plow for an '04 2500HD with plow. The old one only had 34K miles, but was getting a little rusty around the edges. Also no AC, and a manual trans. so the wife couldn't plow when I'm away. But it ran great and I knew it's history. The new one is pretty stripped, no power windows or locks, but that's OK. Only 17,250 miles, but it plowed alot! They wore 1" off at least one cutting edge.The truck alsohas surface rust on most of the front end frame partsfromeating too much salt. Wondering what you think of the price of $17,500. Looks OK by Kelly, but then I look at other for sale listings and they seem higher. Great forum!

Gas 6.0. And seriously limited on the options. That center 20% seat back looks like it should fold down to become an arm rest, but doesn't. Still a big step up over the old truck, also very stripped truck. My Dadordered it in, gotPS and brakes, and the 4 speed manual upgrade only. It had the smallest 6 available with the widest Meyer's plow for that year!

Thanks for the welcome smoke20, looking forward to reading more old posts!
