There was a guy we hung out with had a badass lifted e350 4x4 modded diesel...thing was hilarious. A van hooked up to a 16k trailer doing burnouts lol
I'm 12 yrs behind I guess so maybe I have no idea what a new vehicle is like and all the annoying stuff.
A guy s deer camp spent 100k on a brand new top of the line Silverado Duramax... absolutely insane he caught all kinds of shit. Now...he does use it he's a roofing contractor. But if you actually needed it and were racking up 30-40,k a year...why wouldn't you get a bare bones commercial truck and save 20,k at least.
I've considered getting my same truck with low miles since I already know how to work on it etc.
I dunno I mean if I really wanted to
...I could just keep repairing this thing. Am I really going to spend 45k over 5 yrs on repairs on this truck? No
The biggest problem is the rust. I have so many rock chips rusting everywhere from caravans in the Dakotas scouting. I doubt in 2 yrs the windshield will stay in place and the cab remains waterproof lol
I honestly give zero shits of the looks I love this truck. I don't care what my truck looks like or what people think of me etc.
And with my current driving...I probably could keep driving it a while
Maybe just get the gf a newer car, keep hers as a spare and repair mine as needed for the few times I legitimately need a truck anymore.
Well see I guess. I honestly don't even want to deal with it I'm a status quo guy. I had to charge my cell phone at the absolute perfect angle for ,6 months ...then it stopped charging completely and i tried getting it to work for 3 days and down to 10% battery before getting a new one
