I need to buy a new beater truck, and I found this on Craigslist.

********************************

1995 Isuzu Trooper LS 4WD Dark Blue. Great running truck!****Will sell only to private parties. No fly-by-night dealer types********

Single owner, well taken care of. Great ride and runs perfect with recent transmission, engine oil, and coolant flushes.

Brand new ($400) Pioneer sound system (MP3/CD/Satellite) with new speakers/remote
ABS
New brakes and Michelin LTX M/S tires

****************************************

I don't know much about the 2nd gens. What should I look out for on this one? I don't know the mileage on it, but 120k would be average and Edmunds values it at $2700, so either it's low(er) miles or he wants waaaay too much (asking $3700).

Any suggestions/warnings/appeals for reason?

Sounds like a nice Trooper...dunno if I'd go more than $3K though. I guess the stereo might be worth something extra, or not.
