I can buy a lot of gas to make up the difference from a new trunk vs old truck.
Parts are cheaper easy to change you can actually get to everything.
Insurance and taxes are cheaper
IMO i don't like the new trucks they sit up to high you can't hardly backup because you can't see. You almost have to have a step ladder to reach in the side of the bed to get something out and they are just getting uglier. My biggest gripe is after a couple years the plastic dash start to crack and you just paid 40K or so for a new truck and the dash is cracked.
I do plan on installing efi on it later and a gear vendor to make it comfortable on the interstate and i can run modern gas a little easier.
