I think your are right in the ball park for what you want to spend and the vintage trucks you are looking for. If you are looking at the Dodge... 2000-2001 were the best years according to my mechanic but he is a Cummin's guy with over 300,000 miles on his 2000 and I have a buddy with a 99 Ford F350 PS pushing 200,000 miles and he loves it. To bad you weren't closer, I have the Dodge in my sig for sale. Good luck with your search.
