Pickups are getting scary expensive...
In 1973 I ordered a 1974 model Dodge 1500 4X4 from the factory. I ordered the base model no radio, rubber floor mats, no A/C it was as stripped as possible. The cost out the door was $3800. It wouldn't surprise me if a 2018 equivalent would be over $25,000.
And back in 1947 my grandpappy bought a new ______for $652 dollars!
Agree they're expensive. Ditch the KR leather, 6 cameras and the 100 other luxury options and it looks a lot better.
Plus apples to apples a new truck today is about 100 percent more capable and lasts 100 percent longer than a 70s or 80s anything.
