Hey 'Dog-
A new truck could cost close to 100 grand, when you can buy a used truck with 700 thousand miles for about 20 or 25 grand, and you would still have at least 200 thousand miles of life on the engine because you aren't going to be working it nearly as hard as it did when hauling 80,000# gross weight. You only need a new truck if you are wealthy and plan to drive a few hundred thousand miles in the next few years, which I kinda doubt.

PS- the truck w/500 grand in miles might have cost 30-35 grand in dollars
