Yuckie ^^^^^^
every new design is "yuckie" to some.......I remember those exact words in 2007 when they replaced the classic and again in 2013 when the current style came out........but eventually the new styles grow on you (or most guys).........each to their own - - I mean there's some guys on here that even like the Dodge/Ram looks......

Nice to see some round wheelwells instead of square ones, might not see them with 10" lift kits to fit 33" tires, lol

I think these are gonna be real good.
Better millage than a gasser and should be able to get 500,000km out of them.

Gassers seem to show their age much sooner.

I dont think many people keep their trucks until 500,000km. And if they keep them that long they are called truckers.

A gasser can easily get 500,000km these days. (With a little TLC of course). The average person puts on 25,000-50,000 KMs a year. Plenty of time to pay it off and enjoy a trouble free vehicle for years.

I didnt say that you cant put that many km's on a vehicle but i bet most people put under 200,000km and then trade it in and start making payments on a new one.

This is a very true statement in today's society. Everything is a throw away , nobody buys something and keeps it long term and gets the full value out of it.

I find it hard to justify the cost of a new one anymore. My 09 Duramax has everything I need and just over 120,000 km on it. Should last for awhile yet.
