...... I’ve been able to find perfectly good vehicles used. I’m not saying that I’d never buy new. My Host was 5K more than a 5 year old one. So, not a hard an fast rule, but something to consider.
When I went truck-shopping back in 2016, I found lot of used trucks with 30-40,000 miles selling in $50k range. They were at the end or past the warranty and in configurations that I consider not-TC friendly.
I finally decided to special order new truck for $56k who fit my needs like a glove and had options used trucks did not have, like 360 cameras and ultimate tow package.
The updated GPS sold for US, found small suburban street in Prince Rupert, BC without hesitation. Live traffic come very handy
The warranty cover oil pan gasket replacement, who require engine removal, so I can only guess what it would cost without warranty.
