My son bought a truck with that many miles. Stupid move for a kid who has to pay for repairs out of his wallet. Also like most kids, he had to get LED lights, paint this , etc. So he sank money on the truck and didnt get a penny for the "mods" he did. He ran if off road/muddin (it was 2wd drive) and eventually blew the head gasket. He learned a hard lesson. Trucks are stupid expensive and I would steer him toward a car as a 1st vehicle.
