I can probably patch mine up for a little over $4k.
I need 4wd. The last 15 miles of the trip to the area I go diving in Mexico requires it. I also want to start pig hunting in Texas when I move back to Arizona. I have a friend who has a 100 acres in the San Angelo area.
here is a pic of the beach in Mexico where I go diving

I recently went through this same dilemma with my 99 2500 4x4. Mine looks like crap, but is solid, when the engine goes, I will probably get a crate motor, needs paint. I brought home a new suburban back at the beginning of the year, didn't like the idea of a payment or the fact that o only sometimes drive it, and mainly use it to drag the track cars to events and haul stuff that I don't want in the Cheyenne. So, I didn't keep the new one, figured I will just put a paint job on the burg.
