The dealer was asking $37 grand for my 2018 Tacoma off road trade in. I did not pay much more than that new it’s crazy. Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that! Jerry Herbst

I mentioned to wife the other day about getting an old truck, which she said where could I get parts? I told her I would vacation to Cuba and put them in my suit case duty free, lol.

Not always true though. Know a guy that bought a new truck and it was a lemon. Warrantied yes, but still a pain to deal with the headaches. New or used, ya never know. I've always bought vehicles that were between 3 and 7 years old and never needed the warranty. Never had major issues.

Get a junker and it’s a lemon you’re worse off I think. Last edited by Law Dog; 05/04/25 07:36 PM. Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that! Jerry Herbst

Im glad others are willing to buy new, otherwise I wouldnt be able to find a gently used vehicles that are a couple years old. Everyone has different priorities and needs.
