    Considering Buying an '84 M1009

    I appreciate your input. Yes, the added A/C is included int he price. I also don't know how he knows what the highway MPG is because he's never taken it on the highway. he mostly drove it around town and took camping/hunting. So it sounds like getting parts won't be a problem and it's something...
