Much of the posts in this thread remind me of a neighbour of mine, a really nice retired fella, just came home with his new pickup this weekend.
Absolutely every option he could find, Duramax / Allison drivetrain, 4 x 4, etc., etc.....
I asked about the cost of the Diesel engine option, he didn’t reply with the cost but rather “You can’t really look at just the cost, it’s a million mile chassis, I’ll NEVER wear it out!”
He buys a new truck every 2 years and the one he just traded in had 80,000 km (50,000 miles) on it..........
But he has lots to brag about at the coffee shop for the next few weeks.......
