IMO, I think a truck set-up like that has more potential problems then a stock set-up, especially with that milage. I would wait a little bit longer and I'm sure the perfect one will turn up.

I need the car before mid aug. kids go back to school, and my mom will be doing 50 miles a day. so she needs that better mpg car. But I need a truck for parts running. so thats what we decided on.

Id look around...those were prone to problems and there is no telling how that suspension was installed. I like the ZR2s alot but everyone wants way too much for them, I ended up finding a K10 Chevy truck with a 454 for $1000 compared to the usuall $17k dealers ask for the ZR2s.

I would find a stock one and do the mods myself.
That "prerunner look" is so played out I wouldn't even want that. It all started out with guys not having enough to lift the back lol.
If you like the truck though, get it. Its your money.
If it was me though, I would find a nice stock 4cyl S10 with lower miles to go drive around in.
