so ive had several offers for my 02. in and around the 13-15K range. i've been thinking about a long bed for a while now. i have a 5th wheel and a super glide slider but it doesnt slid fast enough to not let my new TT contact my truck. so a long bed is in mind.
now there is the debate of 04-04.5 why the newer one? are they really worth it? around here they are 4-5K over a much much cleaner 04. i know they have 325 HP but really? 5 grand is a lot. for 20 HP.
i've found a really frikin clean 04. built 12/03 for 14.5K and a well used and abused 04.5 for 19K. the 04.5 had 128K miles. 04 has 182K and is in WAY better condition.
or should i keep my ol 02 qcsb. it needs both differentials rebuilt. gears n all. i'm tired of sinking money into it. last year it got new transmission. new tires. new steering, new control arms, new u-joints. new glass. i'm done.
maybe i need some outside thoughts on the subject.
sorry if some of this makes no sense. i've had a few beers. it is after all St.Patrick day.,
