[QUOTE="Evox, post: 1042158, member: 74754"] It's kind of a state of mind. Is the ST a million-mile truck? ...sure it is. You'll just have to do stuff to it along the way. Right now, my truck on the open market is worth [I]maybe[/I] a couple of thousand dollars to a stranger. But I know this truck. Eventually, something will require me to rebuild the engine, which will cost me a couple of thousand dollars. ...but not today. Nothing that can go wrong on this truck now will cost [I]me[/I] more than what people typically pay for a few months of car payments—... not to mention the depreciation cost. Yes, my wife's new car is nice, but all in (depreciation, fuel, maintenance, etc.), we're paying roughly sixty cents a mile for her rig. I have to drive 30 miles to get to nowhere and then another 20 to get to somewhere from my home. It adds up. [/QUOTE]
