Oldsub has a good point. The truck had better be a really good deal before you add all of the other expenses to it. This can work to *your* advantage if you're patient. I was looking for an old chevy truck for almost a year, when I was cruzin ebay one night, and set the pull down to "items nearest me" and <magic harp sound> there she was!!! A 46 panel located less than 5 miles away from me. That gave me an instant advantage over the other interested parties. $40 got it flatbed towed to my house. My vote would be to have patience and wait for something closer to home. Sorry to be a wet diaper. Just be patient.
