$500 truck… With 243,00 miles?

I've always liked the older Ford trucks so I was looking to get one but I didn't want to have to pay several thousands. I was looking online and found a $500 1995 Ford F250 XL, but with around 243,000 miles. There are no issues in the description, and there have been no accidents or recalls. There seems to be a bit a rust, but I don't care much about that. I'm assuming the low price is from the amount of mileage. I love the truck and the price, but is it even worth the price? I don't want to see it break down after only a few weeks of usage. Any thoughts?
