Oh yeah. Just wanted to see what they were going for. Just started looking and I'm in no hurry right now. I'll know when I see it.

More words of wisdom, but you must spend a LOT of time shopping for USED and be very careful, they don't trade em in because they are running fine many times. Do you know someone in the car business locally? Approach them about some ideas and models to consider, some engines are junk, be open minded about what you buy and where you buy it, and remember your best tool to get a good deal is walking away. My son always spends 2-3 weeks shopping and I go along.
PS, my employment is GM parts counter sales, we get to see what breaks on a daily basis.

GENO if I listed all my circle of contacts in the field of trucks..their repairs and parts... even you would be surprised..
I am so blessed to have a web of friends who make tuff tasks and purchases as simple as jusk asking for help...They get the same in return...In Spades and free grass-seed.
You gave Morris as sound of advice as can be given..
New vehicle purchases..:nono:
My wife and I have a rule and it is.....
"If you go looking for a car and you find one you like - you paid too much for it if you bought it that day."
Simple rule - saves thousands.
Oh yeah and....NEVER BUY THE WINDOW ETCHING BULLSHIT. NEVER!!!!!!!
