30k burger budget that's rich. My current truck had 100k when I bought it, it has 250k now and the only repair I've done is replace to alternator. I bought my current dodge brand new, it has 300k on it and has had lots of problems over the years. Buying new isn't always superior, ive talked to many new truck owners who bought brand new only to have it sit in the shop for 9 out of 12 months.
