>>1645649>favorite make/model and why?The most reliable one. Being stranded sucks! I had an '85 S10 that had the computer module pop on a San Diego freeway after a several days of being a dick. That was under warranty., but a hassle. The Dodge had an after market ignition cutout installed before I bought in used with 59k miles for $6000. That was an intermittent hell of starting and then out of nowhere, not. Opened the fob and resoldered the absolute shit job on the crkt bd (did not meet IPC Class 1, so...) even after that, the relay under the hood got me and the clutch plate blew going to work, but else a great truck with over 200k miles on it now. The black Chevy is recent and hasn't been a daily driver yet, but at $800+$200 repairs and no rattles, I suspect it will be great. It's my first automatic since my '82 4x4 monster Chevy from back in '95-'01, (2" body lift, 4" axle lift, 35"x15"x12" Ground Hawg tires). The '96 S10 (2nd one, kayak truck) was my back road baby, I have over 220K miles on it, many two track dirt roads, over many counties. Never needed a tow. All my vehicals have been bought used and paid for in full.
Never pay retail, ama.
>>1645646>I feel pain for the future when the older trucks are no longer feasible to keep goingI hear that! I'm struggling to keep my '62 Spyder rolling and I know HOW to work on that! New tech, I'm already very dependent.
