Mike68, if you're looking for used trucks, always remember that many of the northern states use salt on their roads in the winter, so even a 2-3 year old truck may have cancer issues if it wasn't well taken care of. Best vehicles tend to come out of the south and SW. Texas trucks will also tend to have a =lot= of miles on them, even in only a few years. You live in "big country", so I'm sure you see the same thing. Just sayin'... You sound like you've done a lot of homework, so I don't think you'll have a lot of issues.
