    Usually these are part of a fleet, once they get replaced they turn into donor trucks and by the time they get their parts robbed there wouldn't be a whole lot left but a lot of steel. ive got a deal going now with a fleet of 70+(I was initially told 40) dodge 3500/2500 passenger vans and I got three of their donors in the last few weeks, I talked to the mechanic in charge and said between the three vans you couldn't make one good one

    expect the worst and hope for the best
