Once you have the powertrain checked over (and hopefully its ok), I would look at the other mechanical systems. Even if you had to sink $15,000 into repairing the little things, its still WAY cheaper than purchasing a new truck.
Not really, the gap between what I could probably sell mine for and what I could buy a new one for is actually not that large.

Stay on top of maintenance and use quality fuel and DRIVE THE NEW TRUCK!!! 67K miles in 10 years??? C'mon guy :B
Hah! It's worse than that: 42k miles in 10 years!
I'm in the performance car business, so the truck is not my main form of transportation, except in the winter snows. It's been basically 42k miles of trailering a 16k lbs race hauler.
