So I'm needing another truck since my dad has taken over mine.
It would be used regularly to haul wood, haul the family, haul lots of stuff, and be driven 200 mile round trips regularly, but I'm wanting a Chevy 2500 HD. I have a Suburban 2500 and have been very impressed, so I figure this is as close as you can get in a truck. (I wouldn't mind a F250 either)
Looking for a 6 seater, 4x4, 4 door. Budget is 5-20K, but the only used trucks I can find in that price range are around 2004-2008 generally with a lot of miles.
Did find a nice one locally for 16K that has 101K miles, but it is a 2004.
Question is for you experienced truck guys (subjective assessment aside, as in I'm not going to know exactly how the truck was cared for other than what the owner says, or Carfax says) - is there a point in your mind when you think a truck is too old or has too many miles to be driven distances regularly?
And, can anyone recommend a good forum for full size Chevy trucks? (what is the ARFCOM of full size trucks)
