Looks like a good truck.  Typical high quality Westfalia fit and finish
inside.  Price seems reasonable.

That turbo diesel 6 may be enough for a truck of that size.  I drove an
older LT with a NA 5 cylinder diesel, lets just say it made my 82 diesel
westy seem positively Fast.
Those LTs are a lot more 'truck like' than our vanagons, so it's a trade
off.  You don't get all that room, and there's lots of it, without
sacrificing drivability.  I've used my vanagon as a daily driver in the
past, I would never consider doing that with an LT.
On the other hand, a long term trip in an LT westy would be a comfortable -
even luxurious experience :)
Taking a shower, whenever I wanted.  Dare to dream.
