This guy is low on his prices already. $800 for the dually? The alcoa rims are worth $1000 if its a set of 6 themselves.

I think that is a 2wd Blazer, but still worth $500 if its got complete drivetrain wether it runs or not. I bet I could get it running. Those good ole country boys park stuff and pick up a new one intead of getting thngs fixed.

Dude I am so tempted to get that 1 ton. At this point I have absolutely no use for a 1 ton truck with a 454 but I am confident I could sell that thing for at least 3k to someone else.

Prolly more like $2K, maybe $2500. No matter what, its a money making investment. Get it for $800, put a couple hundred in it, cleaning it up and tuning it up. Ask $2500 and see what you get. Might get an offer $2K and make a quick $1000 profit. Then you buy the wife some flowers for $25 and have $975 to put into your K1500.

Now this is tempting, I keep telling my wife.... If I scoup up deals like this and save up about 3 trucks, give em a quickie paint job and haul them back east I could make 3 or 4 times what I spent on them easy. And this could be the truck to haul the trucks back east.

Can't tell much from the pic but looks decent from what we see. I'm not real big on duallies but for some reason I like the regular cab duallies.

I wouldn't mind a crew cab dually. I'd only want a crew cab if it were dually. Those trucks look way to long without the dually hips.

These student loans are basically 0% interest. Student loans are the best loans you can get according to my father in law. He told us whatever they offer take it all.... If it was not for her loans we would have starved to death by now.

Basically, its using the gubments money to make money. He can put that $800 back into the wife's education fund after he turns the profit. I'd do it too.

Hate to say it, but that thing would drink up all your profit in fuel with about 8mpg.

Solid investment, the only thing is, I might end up really attached to that nice lookin truck and convince myself to hold on to it haha.
