I just did an Autotrader search and within 300 miles there is 0 trucks that fits that description. The results I do get are Quad cab Dakotas and Full size repairables. That is it. I seriously need a new truck and I am getting annoyed with the insane prices they have now. Last time I bought a low mileage cream puff 10 year old truck I paid less than $10K, it had 30K miles and people said I got ripped off. This was 2008.
      I have just that truck for sale! but, wrong color.

          part of your problem is you give a shit about "under 80k miles".. Any truck that fits what you're looking for is a bigger POS that something 5 years newer with 180k miles for the same price. Look at condition, not miles..

            I want both. So yeah, I am going to have to pay more. But your Thesis was 17K was too much, I am telling you anything under 17K buys you nothing worth owning. I have owned high mileage vehicles in good shape and low mileage vehicles in good shape. I will take low mileage anyday. Less trips on the tow truck because of worn out parts.

              If a high mile vehicle is truly in good shape generally wear items have been replaced already. I just bought an 03 2500hd with 230k. Drives great and has a few little issues but I expected it. Lots of newer parts on it though.

                Obviously you know what you're talking about. Good luck to you, I don't really care either way.

                  I have owned several high mileage vehicles that have been very well maintained. None of them needed major things, however were plagued with small things all the time, ball joints, u joints, bearings, pulleys, injectors.... Basically everything that high mileage vehicles probably are going to need. I will take my chances with the low mileage cream puffs. Paid off for me big time over the years.

                    Maybe just don't buy pieces of shit that fall apart with some miles?

                        I guess you missed my point. Like I said if the vehicle with high miles has really been taken care of and actually is in good shape they usually have all or most of that shit replaced within the wear period. I'd trust a Buick with the 3100 motor at 150k over one with 90k because you damn sure know the intake gaskets have been replaced.

                          I get your point, however in my experience 150K+ vehicles nickel and dime you a hell of a lot more than a vehicle with sub 80K miles. Hell my lesabre that I bought with 70K has 160K right now. It has been very well maintained, and right now it needs, struts, alignment, motor mounts, tie rod ends. Never had to put a dime into this car really until it hit 150K now, every day something new needs to be replaced. Yes I get your point, a lot of stuff probably has been replaced, but a lot of stuff is going to be needing to be replaced as well. My Lesabre runs great however even after I finish these repairs I do not trust driving it more than a few hours away anymore and probably never will again. Two years ago I would have drove it from coast to coast. I would take a sub 80K vehicle that has been well maintained anyday of the week and twice on sunday over a high mileage vehicle that has also been well maintained.

                            They are running 0% for like 5 years on most everything now days. Just get something new instead of a 12 year old junker. 0% would be hard to pass up and if you're gonna keep it forever who cares.

                              I just transferred a title from an out of state purchase on a 2005 Corvette. Outside of sales tax the rest of the fees were about $84 with standard plates.
