I dont know much about this but, that seems like a really low price, maybe someone else will answer you better.
Also might wanna put the year model, and if its a single cab or club cab.
.That's a pretty good price for an R/T. But, if you do consider this, do the same thing as when buying any used vehicle. My biggest concern is possible engine/trans trouble. If the body looks bad, then it might drive bad, so do take it for a test drive.
.i will of course take it for a test drive if i decide to go that way.... it looks immaculate..... guy says it runs and drive good....... its a 2000 club cab.......
.Year and CC or RC. Any mods, previous maintenance, how many miles.

.i bought mine with 150K miles and it still runs strong to this day. just make sure the previous owner(s) did routine maintenance.
.Any mods done to it? Did the owner race it, was it his daily driver? Weekend toy? There are a lot of things I'd check out before buying it.

Some people just arent honest enough to believe when it comes to things like this.
Good idea to ask tho.
.Generally speaking, if there are mods done to it, chances are it was raced. If it's stock, then was probably just a driver.

Good point. I would say for the mileage it is a fair deal if in fact it runs strong and make sure there are no LEAKS. IF the transmission feels good then I say you cannot go wrong.
As a side note if you want to go faster look for a regular cab!
