An older, trustworthy coworker is selling his 2004 Nissan Frontier. He claims he's had all regular matience done on the truck and has only used fully synthetic oil every oil change. He also says he's recently dropped a new tranny and clutch into the truck. Here's the catch --- the truck has 207,000 miles on it. He's asking $2,500, which is all I can afford right now. Should I spend the money despite the high mileage?

I don't care how well a vehicle is maintained, that is a lot of miles and money. Where are you located? Is there any rust on the vehicle? Has the timing belt been done, should be due for it's second one(every 105K)?

I'm located in northern California. I'm not sure about rust or the timing belt, but I will ask.

I would compare to other trucks online or in the newspapers. $2500 is high, if you ask me, maybe $1500 or so would be reasonable
