Hey guys, brand new here. I'm going tommorrow to look at a 97' 2500 QuadCab Longbed Auto.. It has around 160,000 miles on it. What are some things I need to look for? And what kind of price range good-bad shape would you think is a fair offer?
I am a mechanic, so you can use loose terms,lol. Is this a good tow rig combo for say 2 rock buggies?

I would be a little weary of the the auto trans the 47re does not have the greatest reputation. Also find out if the KDP, Killer Dowl Pin, has been tabbed or not. Other then that check for blow by and you should be fine.
