Buy it. If nothing else you could likely resell it for about 3 or 4 times that price. Those trucks are really sought after.

Yes running/driving and not beat to heck, $7k is a good deal.
You could easily add another $7k to that in repairs by tomorrow depending on the life left in some of the major components.

Even well maintained 200k is the end f the road for a lot of parts and since you don't know much about trucks, I'd get it checked out by someone who does before spending the $.
