At that price, I'd say "score" if it has a clean title and decent mileage.

246K miles, Clean texas title, Was a North texas truck all its life

ya forgot to mention, One of the rear windows doesnt work and the guy had new regulators in a box not yet installed


I'm thinking one of the windows was stuck down for some time, rain water/moisture got in and caused the mildew smell and then they "fixed" up the window


Lots of dirt and debris inside the rear hatch and door jabs ???


Dave

all of that to me would mean it probably sat somewhere for a extended period of time, it's normal for dirt to get in the cracks & crevices especially the doors jams if you don't clean them it just accumulates I clean mine every 3-4 months probably, I give them a thorough cleaning with 409 & paper towels or a soft rag/towel

Score. Yep new carpet smell and gives you a chance to sound deaden if you wanted and to give it a really good clean from the paint to the overhead. Good luck moving forward.

If you haven't done them yet,

The brakes: Look into the "NNBS brake upgrade" for the front. Its a slightly larger but much thicker rotor, with a 2 piston caliper and a larger pad. You need the caliper with bracket, rotor, and pad to match, but if you were going to upgrade anyways its a very small price increase for the improved braking. Its a simple replace with the new parts/zero modding needed upgrade.

Shocks: depending on what you got, and what you want out of it, this is the time to delete those expensive self leveling shocks.

Looks like a great deal, as for the moldy smell, get something like this Ozone Generator:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JAP7388/ref=oh_aui_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I have this one, and it's great for odors, for a car/truck run turn the truck to ACC and turn the fan on max.
then turn your Ozone Generator for 30-45minutes, let the truck air out for a while before getting back in. You should notice smells are gone.
