I get the beater comment, to be honest it's more about comfort and saving money on fuel. My truck, which I LOVE costs around $130 in Diesel round trip. With the economy you guys are getting round trip will cost maybe 20 or 30 bucks! My truck rides nice for 1 or 2 hour trips but 9-10 hour trips just break me. I'm definitely sold "short of a test drive" which I'm doing tomorrow. Thank you so much for all the responses. Really reassured me on what I thought I already knew.He’s probably looking at it like I do, as my dad suggested I do the same for my commute.
-can’t put a price on safety and reliability (beater car doesn’t check those boxes).
-the creature comforts and amount of time spent enjoying them
That’s the justification for putting 80k on mine
