I'm just a 1/2 ton truck guy and I don't need or want a diesel, so don't even go there fan boys!
I see what's out there now, new and used, and just can't seem to get that feeling I need to go and even look right now...
It took me some 13 years of owning my old 97 F150 that I bought used with 65k miles on it and traded it with 255k miles on it (and still running strong) for the brand new 13 F150 I have now.
I've got some 87k miles on the 13 and very happy with it. Does all I need it to do and I have even upped my TT by some #2000 and it still does all I need it to do..
Anyway, I'm a faithful truck owner and I know I will be having to trade the 13 in at some point.... But, it'll bring a tear to my eye when I do it, just as it did when I signed over the title on that old 97.... I still wish I owned it... Just not in the cards to own both..
But, as what has always been said in life... It's "okay" to look... It's just when you "go all in" is where it's really a 'sin'! :)
Good luck! Mitch
Mitch, I know what you mean about liking the truck (except for the diesel part). I have a 12 Ram 4x4 with the Cummins. Great truck. Five weeks ago come Saturday an 80’ sweet gum tree attacked it. Crushed the cab and the bed. What an awful day. So I went shopping. Yuck. The more I looked the less I liked the new models. Yeahhhh, I’m fixing it!!! It’s coming out of reconstructive surgery Friday or Monday. Man I can hardly wait!
