Save yourself $50,000 and use what you have. That Cummins will have no issues with 11,000 lbs. I'm still using a 2001 Cummins dually, and it gets the job done. Yeah, it's not as fancy, and it is noisier, but $50,000 will buy a lot of traveling. JMO anyway.
And now is a terrible time to buy anyway, prices are waaaaay high.
I can agree that now is not the gratest time to buy a vehicle.
Nevertheless the OP does not need to settle for a 20 year old truck.
Especially with the idea he is about to retire.
His 2002 does not compare to a modern diesel truck.
If the OP want to treat himself to a few amenities and adancements why not go for it. Life too short to be stuck in 2002.
You can't take the $$$ with you. I'm all for saving but some just like the idea of money they prefer to settle and make do than spend, even when they can afford to spend.
