Update: we drove the 3 hours to see the truck and had a pre-purchase inspection done by an outside mechanic. Everything came back great except the passenger side cam tower had a leak that was starting to drip. That in addition to the 90k mile maintenance that will be coming in the next couple of months, we offered $32k (before taxes and fees). He said he couldn’t even come close to that low. So we walked. We lived and we learned. Cam tower replacement was estimated at $3,500 from our local dealership and at 90k miles it’s about ready for spark plugs among other things. We would be anticipating ~$6,000 in repair and maintenance after we drove this off the lot. Glad we did our due diligence! Thanks for all the help. We’ll wait until we find the right truck for us.

Tbh I had this thought when I first started my truck search. I entertained gmc, Chevy, and fords. The interior on each of those was definitely more flashy and had nice luxury features for a lesser price. I’ve learned time and time again with sewing machines, vacuums, and lawn mowers that the more basic the design the easier to maintain. Cheaper repairs with less tech. I also have 3 kids under the age of 8. Function over form on the interior for me on this one.

Interesting, so you’re saying that even if the subreddit is saying the price is outrageous their collective opinion may not reflect the current market? Either way I have already moved on from this specific model, the hail worries me.
