new truck prices??

[HoustonHunter]

I may be in the market soon as my 2006 with 217,000 miles is nearing the end I think, and I'm getting the itch. Gently used truck prices seem way high, so I'm curious as to what people are actually paying for new ones.

Looking at a 3/4 ton to 1 ton 4x4. Diesel most likely. And loaded. Leather/ navigation/ etc... not sure which manufacturer I want yet so let's see them all.

PM me if you need help financing.

I'm thinking these new truck prices are so high, I might go back to a 68 -77 model and pay someone rehab it and still be ahead on my money. At least then I'll be able to change my own oil, spark plugs and wires rather than spending $500 to pay the shop to do it.

Ive always wanted to do that. I would really like to rehab one of the old 12v Dodge Cummins. Maybe even graft it with one of the old military crew cab short beds.

You have to look in the right place, at the right time. My dad bought his 2012 Ram 2500 Laramie 4X4 for $47K when the 2013 were rolling onto the lot. If possible, I would recommend a 2012 ram as well if you can find one. They don't require that extra emissions fluid. Plus you can still get the 850 ft.lbs torque out of the cummins.
I bought a 2012 Crew Cab Long bed 2500 with the cummins (cloth seats, electric everything) for $38K at Henson Motor in Madisonville

$28-29 on a new 2014 Crew Cab Texas Edition Silverado

We had only one and just sold it an hour ago. Let me show you this one over here. I know its not the same price but you have to see where that extra money is going. And once you drive it. well son you are gonna know. First off it has............

M16s post made me think of this add on.

Ford has 1.9% for 48 months. It is cheaper to make payments than take the money out of my pocket.

^^^that made spending the money a little easier.

I'm with you on that. I could have written the $54K check, but that $54K is making me over 8% interest per year and selling stocks would also result in more income taxes. I'm not in the habit of keeping money in an unproductive place.

Can grab a 2014 cummins for bout 40

No you can't. I spent nearly 5 months price hunting a truck across the nation and finally found it in Idaho at Dave Smith motors. 2014 longhorn laramie 4x4 megacab $67k msrp and I bought it there for only one reason. No one in the country could touch their price out the door. And it wasn't $40k but I wish It would've been.

Just bought a 2012 F-150 Eco boost Platinum with 17,000 miles. Paid $39k for it and love it.
Not one is worth what we will have to pay for them. But sure is nice to drive a new truck.

I bought a restored 1987 silverado for that reason.

Two weeks ago, I bought a new loaded 2014 F150 EcoBoost XLT Crew Cab ( Two tone paint,leather, 20" wheels, prem. sound, limited slip, spray in liner). Right at $40k out the door with extended warranty.
For my daughter to take to school in Lubbock.
