so i looking to buy a pickup, i always liked ford and wanted a f150 and had found a 2000 f150 xlt 4x4, 2 doors, 167m km with a fiber glass box. the owner says the truck is in good condition and everything, the body looks good, didnt see any rust on the pictures. so he wants 4000$ for this truck.
BUT!
sooner today i found a 2004 dakota sport 4x4, 152m km, 4 doors. the body looks almost new, i can only see the small grill in front is bending a little but i can fix this in 2 minutes. the owner wich is a car dealer only want 2000$ wich im suprised, i didnt expect the price to be this low.
I mainly need a truck for taking my quad, snowmobile etc to somewhere else and from time to time go hunting or fishing wich is 3 hours away from the closest city so i need a good truck, i dont realy want to be stuck in the middle of no where with no phone ( cell phones server doesnt work there ). i dont plan on pulling high weight, maybe a small trailer 1-2 times a year.
SO wich one is the better ? i mean they both have a good body, the mechanics is fine ( said the owner, and the dealer said nothing about this, but its still a car dealer, it must be in good shape). Wich one is the most reliable ?
i myself go straight to the car dealer guy, who is 600km away from where i live to buy the dakota but i wanted the oppinions of you guys who must know a lot more than me about trucks.
EDIT : i also found a ram 1500 2004 4x4, 4 doors, 187m km for 3200$, owner says the mechanics is in perfect conditon but i can see on the photo that the '' wings '' ( part over the wheels ) are rusted pretty good, i dont realy mind repairing this myself but is it worth 1200$ more than the dakota ?
