Living in AZ, why would you buy a rust bucket?

Gotta update my location...relocated near Baltimore
The '97 almost seems too good to be true. I'm guessing it hasn't sold yet for a reason.

What Would Steve Zissou Do?
Agreed, would fetch near double that listed price in New England.
It's possible that somthing is wrong with it...but anyone around this area doesn't want to own a 15yr old truck also gas just happened to go down..I may go ahead and see if I can contact his guy and take a look at it..I'd personally like to see it as well don't worry I won't be a buyer haha!

Had a couple of drinks.. saw a couple of things
I would love to get into a poverty pack but those are even rare then the locked trucks
Option 2 gets my vote. Original owner should have more insight into maintenance history and potential issues, assuming he's an honest guy.
The rust under the hood Is modest for a north east land cruiser. The rear heater pipes and new exhaust hint to under carriage rust that would make It a deal breaker for me. Doing mods on a rusty bottom end Is awful. If you drive It as Is and repair things when they break and keep changing oil every 3500 Its a reasonable price. If your wanting to mod, No.

WEHD, great inference. With all of the points made by fellow mudders, and considering my long term plans for the lucky cruiser, I will pass on both. Perhaps I need to wait until moving back to GA or AZ before hunting for a keeper. Thank you all for your inputs.
