Regardless of the milage, my concern would be that plow on any truck. Just like a tractor with a loader, its probably seen some pretty tough use, even if the engine and trans laughed it off. What about the frame and the other running gear? It might be a great deal. They both might be a great deal. If I"m selling you a truck with a blade on it, I"m telling you that my grandmother only plowed with it on her way to church on Sundays, because I"m selling it and you"re probably buying it. Good luck in your decision, no matter what it might be. No matter the outcome, chalk it up to experience in hopefully a long, happy, productive, and successful life.
