Thumbs up Can you look at a florida truck anybody in the area?

Guys i am working on a long distance truck deal on a 99 quad cab slt long box 4x4 auto it is a little higher on the miles 225k but appears to be very clean and straight. The truck is located in the cocoa/orlando area it would be great if someone could give it a good looking at for me i want to be sure it is as good as the pictures and owner have represented to me. Also everybody give me your input on local florida pricing or what you would expect to pay for this item.
Everything is said to work and tires are half worn the drivers seat has the usual open side seam and front end is not loose he says. The paint is good and the dash is not cracked-the owner is not a member.

Thanks for your input and help

Man, that sure would be a long ways to go for a truck! If I were you I would hold out and try to find sometihng closer. However, if you are set on this truck, I am sure someone in the Fla area will help you out. I live around 175 miles from there...a little far for a leisurely stroll. Worse case, if you can't find anyone closer, let me knwo, we can work something out. Good luck!

Yes that is a long way to go i went to texas for my last one but it was well worth the trip. If you have ever seen or worked on a rust belt truck you will understand why winters combined with throwing salt on the road makes junk out of anything real quick. I drive a sacrifical vehicle when the salt is out a 99 ferd
175 miles would be a bit of a drive for you thanks for the reply i hope their is someone closer that could help out.

It's never to far to get the right truck! I was living in NC and went to AZ to get mine.
