Perfect time for new 2014 3500 as about $10,000 off sticker with Supplier Price for all and incentives and rebates. Good time to trade off. Hated to part with my 2004 2500HD 8.1 big block last week. Body and interior were still beautiful so hard to figure why only the body mounts were rusting out. Discovered when step bars were getting loose. Also noticed that brake and fuel lines were showing a ton of corrosion. I was also starting to notice a few leaking seals around rear end, transmission, and at rear of oil pan. Nothing that could not be fixed but it was starting to appear that I would be running into more maintenance cost than truck was worth. Big picture reality was the truck was 10 years old with 142,000 miles and they don't last forever. Tough decision but sometimes moving on is the best. Randu
