You can honestly write that with a straight face?
I'm comparing one scenario where a person buys a new truck and keeps it for 12 years before selling it and buying a new truck again vs the guy who buys a new truck and replaces it every 4 years. Option one vs option two .... the costs are not going to be tremendously different. The guy who can buy a 20 year old truck and keep it going can probably save a little money.
