99 Sd

[hoax23]

Im intrested in buying a 99 sd. How ever it has 207,000 miles. Any thoughts?

just look it over for the basics, dirt in the intake, oil leaks, aftermarket parts, bearings/ball joints.... Might be a good deal!!!

What all does it have??

I wouldn't be too worried about 200+ K miles. I have 202K on my 2000 and it's fine. I would take it to a DIESEL Mechanic though and have it checked out.

Check the tranny, by 200,000 it is most likely on tranny number 2. And of course either a carfax or oasis report! Best of luck! Mine has 185 on it and running like a top so mileage is nothing to be really afraid of. :burnout
