Most everything around here is a pile of rust..
I traveled to SD to fetch my 48 2 ton with no rust, and it still cost less than a rusty one around here.

If you're able to travel it opens up a whole bunch of better trucks to choose from, and may not cost any more than staying local. Always best to start off with the most rust free truck you can possibly find.
Put a wanted add in the swap meet section with what you are looking for, that's how I found my 2 ton.
