    If you don't do your work repairs, talk with your mechanic, what would he rather see in the shop.

    I agree. IMHO gm’s are easier to fix and “less complicated” than others. If you don’t do your own repairs, definitely refer to your mechanic. Parts prices also vary, another question to ask, so what’s cheaper to fix? Quirks also. Why do some brand trannies all Need repair at xxxxxx miles? Heavier duty trucks also require more fuel to operate, another consideration.

    Whichever way you go, it wont be a rot box like up here. I’m envious.

    In 2-3 years, I’ll be looking forward to buying a similar rig as you, southern of course. Road trip. Truck and camper, yea! Some of my scrap money is being saved for just this purpose now.

    THis could be dangerous. I think a better ? would be what does he see less in there.
