Yeah that's what I have heard could be 6 months. I have seen a few on Kijiji but have not looked at them and most had the 5.6 ft box which is to small for my needs. I will find something but I am not going to hurry.

I have insurance and it's going to pay out from what it seems, the towing company still has to get to it.
But things could have been much worse and I am still alive to go see my 1 year old granddaughter this Thanksgiving in Regina.
I appreciate everyone's comments and I am always up front and like to tell a storey I hope everyone else is safe and has a good rest of the year camping.
Cheers All
I will take my time. I can still hunt. I have a trailer that I have used for the ATV and my wife's care can tow it the Sorento is rated for 4000 pounds. Just have to promise I won't take it off road. Plus I paid for her car so technically I should be allowed to take it, shouldn't I
I am already looking but I am partial to looking for a good old one like I had I really like the 4x4 shifter on the floor and not the electronic crap.
I'm going to wait until I confirm what insurance is going to give me I think I will get what I paid between 10 - 12 K.
I have another 20 K I can toss in, just have to decide how far I want to go. Wife still wants a new Kitchen

I am tired of working on cars and trucks and no longer do repairs on the wife's car I send it to the garage. But I will admit I do like the older ones better and I really am partial with the 4wd on the floor and not the electronic crap.
Probably if I go newish something around 2018. I am hoping maybe if I look hard I might find another Dodge with the shift on the floor but doubtful. Although my mechanic does have the same Dodge Larmine 1 year newer than mine a 2006 but with the Diesel in mint condition that he just put a brand new box on last year. I am thinking of seeing if he is interested in selling it as he did buy a 2018 Ford.

That thing sips fuel, I could probably afford to drive it.
If you go that route GW..pick up a truck coming off lease, around 7yrs old. Best bang for the $$$, usually low millage, well maintained and from what I see in the CT parking lot, not many have never been off hard stand.
Myself, even at that age, they're still well beyond what I would ever pay for a P/U truck. 8 yrs ago I picked up my 97 GMC Sierra at an auction for $3,200. It's getting a little rough around the edges now but still does what it's supposed to do.
Perfect, a great excuse to pick up a used Tundra! :) Always drove Chevs before, and last August bought a Tundra. Never looked back!

I had 2 Tacoma’s in my younger years. Then I had this this idiot idea I needed a F350…what a pile that 6.0 diesel was lol. Back to Toyota I went, I bought a new 17’ Tundra years back. I do regular oil changes and Krown rust every year…”Never look back” Bingo!Quote:
