Said before, 65 grand is more than I paid for my farm and my farm makes money. Real estate appreciates. Vehicles depreciate.

I'm not in the market to buy a new vehicle and if I did (which I did last year), I'd buy a low mileage off lease with a factory warranty.

Step right up, keeps the economy rolling but in my case, ain't gonna happen.

Finally, they are still ugly.

We all know it ain't gonna happen in your case. You go out of your way to let us know in every thread about a new truck. Although you kinda out did yourself in this thread. I figured we would at least get to the second page before posting your usual negativity about new trucks. Was it because this 1/2 ton is rated to tow more than your 97 and you got jealous?

Oh, and you paid way more for your farm than 65k in today's money so comparing it to a new truck is just silly. It's called inflation and it is because the cost to make things increases due to higher wages and other goods along with regulations and interest rates. Here is a link to the US Bureau of Labor and Statistics inflation calculator so you can can see just how much your land cost with today's monetary value.-----> LINK

Don't be surprised if that $65k is equal to well over $150k in today's monetary value depending on when you bought it.
