No kidding on new and used. I priced a 98 3/4 ton cheby with 100,000 at @ 19 grand, no way. 96 dorf 1 ton @ 11,000. I ended up paying 1,000 for an emaculant 85 dorf super duty 250 (8500 gvw) with blown motor. Built a 351w, RV cam, new holly carb and few other optional items. Striped out all the pollution crap. Swaped bed for flat bed, and installed a set of duals. Working on trade to get a goose neck ball setup. All said and done under 4,000 and one heck of a pullin truck. I have hauled 550 gal water (~2 ton). Didn't squat the truck and drove like like nothing was there. Pulled 6 head in stock trailer (~3 ton) and ran 70 down the road no prob. Of course gas milage isn't the greatest, 8-10 mpg, but it isn't for driving to the grocery store. I used it to hual heavy loads.
