For your budget and mechanical aptitude (assumed), I’d find the lowest mile, best kept V10 Ford or 6.0 Chevy gasser you can get.
Noted. I don't disagree. I *could* work on them; I just have zero interest, and probably lack the tools anymore to do more than the very basics.
I may have stumbled across a 'deal' on an '02 GMC 2500 with the 8.1l gas engine & Allison transmission. Mileage seems okay - 160k - high probability of proper maintenance, etc. Kinda thinking this might be a good bet, or at least worth looking into.
Thoughts?
