It's a 1993. 500 were made in that color as a special edition. It does not have the front locking differential, as MB felt at the time that the V8 was too powerful and might break the front axle if locked. Of interest is the fact that the engine is 241HP vs the current G500's 296HP.

That truck has been for sale for quite a long time and has been on Ebay more than once. I, personally, feel the $45k is way high; and this may be the reason it's not selling.
