im 16yrs old im looking for a truck i posted a picture of it on my page but called the owner and he said there is a good amount of rust have not seen it in person. i dont know a lot about cars so what all should i ask he wants $1500 "1995 F150 5.0 with 200,000 miles on it. Every day driver. brush guard, 3' body lift, 33' tires, and a extra deep toolbox in the back. . Just got new spark plugs wires and cap out in. I am asking 1500" that is what he put on craigslist PLEASE I NEED ALL THE HELP I CAN GET

 

also i deliver pizzas so i need a reliable truck and the other guys said that 4x4 helps a lot i know ill pay a lot of gas

 

delivering pizzas in a truck is stupid. you might as well just stay home because you won't be making any money.

 

I wouldn't buy a 4x4 with 200,000 miles on it to deliver pizzas -- you might as well just stay home and put your feet up in an easy chair because between gas and repairs you won't make a freaking dime.....

 

$1500 should get you a decent running economy car, which would make a lot more practical sense.

Friend of mine's kid bought a beater Cavalier 3 years ago for 500 bucks and it's still running.

 

Delivery jobs are extremly hard on vehicles. Buy a junker to deliver if you have too, but don't abuse your daily driver.

 

I agree. You're not going to make any money delivering in that truck. If anything, you'd be lucky if you didn't lose money.

 

And the naysayers said miracles had ceased. That alone is proof all the miracles you've ever heard of were true! (or maybe the ignition switch is broken and he just can't shut it off, yea, I bet that's it)

 

I used my truck as a daily delivery vehicle for a year and a half. I made bank, but also spent a lot on maintenance. I'm nearing 300K miles

 

Go find yerself an Escort.....they're cheap and plentiful.....
