Holly crap batman!
I drive an 06 ram 2500 190000 miles on it. I replaced the engine a couple years ago when i bought it from my daughter who had chipped it and nuked the engine towing horse trailers in the rocky's. Been an ok truck and got 25 highway and 20 in town. Fell to 15 mpg when hauling the camper. Well the old rig let me down last night, blew the fuel lines and dumped deisel everywhere.
Ive been wanting a new truck never had a new vehicle before so i started looking at new and less then 2 years old the price difference is less then 10 grand if you can find one. Well i found the one i wanted 79 grand for a 2020 ram limited. Ran the numbers thru the credit union payment calculator and it was more then my mortgage. So im fixing the old truck and buying an elk hunt somewhere lol.
Lol......would be my choice as well.

No way im paying $100 more a month then i pay for my house. Even making over 100 grand a year the wife and i can't afford it. I don't know how people do it i dang sure don't live rich but within my means and i guess ill continue. One main reason for looking was wanting to buy my last rig before i retire and interest rates skyrocket. I sure don't get all of this spending either. Waiting for the bubble to burst !!

If buying new, order it without all the foo foo yuppy stuff and save a ton of money. Going to be a wait now, though. Or pick a pimped out one off the lot for a mint.
You can still get a work truck for almost half of what most of the ones on the lot cost. Some outer edge farm dealers carry the work truck models. Of go for glam and get the trucks with big screen TVs, shiny grills and heated warmers like most buy.
As of last fall I could still buy a new 2500 quad cab 4x4 with long box and some options for 44k. Still a ton of money but a lot less than most guys pay for their city trucks.
Some of those trucks have coolers as well.

They wouldn't cost so much if people who didn't need / don't use them as trucks would quit buying them. Most are buying them to use as cars or status symbols. They don't pull trailers or even use the beds . Just big passenger cars. Sailboat fuel needs hauled too I guess.

You better get a new truck asap.before the price goes up,and they pull all the old gas guzzlers off the road.Not only that but they are supposed to stop making internal combustion vehicles not too far down the road.I wouldnt wait.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

LOL, any weekend or evening, perfect sailing weather, I see sail boats motor put, putt around, and motor back. Never raise sails.
