Used 4X4 trucks up in price

[bardern]

I was looking fairly new used and once the interest rate on the used was tacked on it was cheaper to buy new

I think you guys are in a whole different ball park, GW and I aren't even in the parking lot...we pay less for trucks than you did in taxes on yours

It sounds like he's looking for something around $3K.....I know I haven't paid over $4K for a truck in my whole life...going on the 3rd yr with my latest that I bought at an auction for $3200.

As long as you aren't in a hurry GW...wait for a good deal to come along.

I had my fair share of used trucks. Some were great others gave me head-aches & cost me lot's of coin to keep them going. I don't have time or the desire to work on them anymore & I would rather spend my free time hunting & fishing. Heck I even had them throw in the maintenance package... lol

You're making the assumption that newer vehicles don't have their problems - or do you buy new when you run out of warranty?

I've got 385k on a '98 sierra bought in 2002. Paid 19k for it then - 4 years old.

Lot's of time, I don't intend to sell the Jimmy until I find something else. Usually when I buy a used truck I make all the necessary repairs up front so it's reliable.

I got the 97 Sierra (4x4) in 2013 ...only 169K on it for $3.2K...stored in a guys garage most of the time. I've only spend $700 to have the diff bearing done and a brake job...that's it for the 3 yrs I've owned it.

I bought my 2001 Jimmy I think in 2013 with 98000 KM on it for 2800. I now have 150000 Km on it and it appears I could probably sell it for more than I paid. What size engine is in that Mike? V8?

I was hoping to find something like an old 2001 - 2005 S10 or Ranger but there are n one left.

yes the 5lt...bullet proof..

I guess you'd be looking for a Colorado (replaced the S-10)..they should be in our price range now.

Are you looking to a P/U to haul the ATV in the bed ? You might be just as well off buying a trailer for behind the Jimmy.

Nope they want 8000 + if it has less than 300,000 on it.
