If I remember right his dad lives around the corner from my house so getting to it wouldnt be an issue and if I wanted to be a cheap fuck Id have somebody follow me in my company vehicle and use company gas to drive it, costing me nothing.
A truck should be worth over $500 in scrap. Some guys are paying over $300 and making a profit junking cars. This truck probably weighs over 5k pounds.
To me a 150k motor is worthless and I dont have an engine hoist or a place to work on/part out a truck so Id take quick and easy money over a week’s work.
