E85 didn't come around until the 04+ trucks as far as i know.

E85 doesn't pay for itself, you end up spending more due to worse mpg.

Its cheaper initially, but you get only 75-80% the mpg of a regular gas or E10 blend. If you break it down to cost per mile, it ends up being more expensive.

The one with a plow nope. personally 5.4 in a SD with that many miles equals junk and wouldnt buy. The 5.4 has no business in a SD. Personally you can get newer half tons with more capability.
