I agree this sounds funny. A clutch job should run about 800 bucks and if the alleged truck value of 300-400 bucks is being quoted to you by the shop who quoted you the price on the clutch job then find another shop - QUICKLY!
If this is the case it sounds like someone there has spotted an opportunity to pick up a late model extended cab pickup on the cheap and they’re flat trying to take advantage of you.
If the truck runs well it should easily go 300k miles if you maintain it.
Jeez, I’d give you 500 bucks for that truck even with a shelled transmission!!!
