If your truck is an 07 classic with the LBZ/Duramax like mine, keep it. Over the next 200k miles I expect to spend 5-10 k on repairs as injectors and other stuff wears out, but I do not expect the main driveline to wear out. If it did breakdown on the road, we do have our house right behind, so we can wait for repairs or trade then.
There are thousands of these trucks out there with many more miles than that with that experience.
The 07 classic has a higher resale value than trucks up to 3 years newer.
I have a 2006 LBZ with 182,000 on it and I plan on keeping it until my son in law inherits it. A few hundred dollars now and then is a lot better than a few hundred dollars every month for a payment.
