no white smoke, runs rough occasionally, and some sort of milky film in the resivoir is what was described to me. she went to autozone/advanced and had someone look at it and they mentioned head gasket. Also had a pretty decent decline in gas mileage as well lately. I cant help much as im 2 hours away, so thats only going by what she has told me.

Doubt you'll get much better mileage than the truck, not enough to offset the added insurance increase atleast. Also i wouldn't expect for it to be 'free from problems' either...Think of the guy you are about to trade with, if this happened two weeks from now, he'd be feeling pretty stupid...hate to be on the other end of the stick with another issue with another car. And i sure hope this mustang isn't owned by a teen guy or anything....lord knows that its been through! Actually i know too, i bought a modded 87 5.0 when I was 16, poor poor car got ragged on, bad!
Good luck with the head gasket issue. Body lift is going to make it more of a pain and maybe cost more to get it done as well

Because I don't need a truck right now. I can't afford to keep fixing it, so bascilly I can't afford to keep going off roading.
I also would like to be getting better MPG and be able to go the speed limit. Ha.
No smoke (yet). I am not driving it until I get it checked out.
