I'm thinking that even with the current price drop, (they started with asking $4,500) it's still a bit overpriced for what is there.

Yes, maybe a tad high on the price, but they are getting harder to find. I was trying to count the wheel lugs to determine whether it’s a 1/2 or 3/4 ton. I’m thinking it’s a 3/4 ton.

You can easily tell by the extra support on the bed: 1/2-tons only have two, while 3/4-tons have three.
All of us old-timers think it’s priced a bit too high. However, considering how much the cost of this hobby has gone up recently, IMHO, the asking price is probably close to being right in today's market.
That being said, if I was currently in the market for another project, I’d walk up with cash in hand and offer $2,500.

Definitely the price has gone up.
