1998 Dodge 3/4 ton should I or shouldnt I

I think a lot of it has to do with
#1 How much wrenching you can do yourself
#2 How much time you have to work on a vehicle yourself
#3 Do you like the vehicle?

When I found Mr Lilly he was a Mechinist/Machanic. He can work on just about anything and fix it, except these new vehicles. They got way too many bells n whistles on em, computer stuff....complications that aren't needed to travel down the road. We'll just keep drivin the older vehicles, and workin on em when needed. Least we have enuff vehicles that if somethin goes down, and hasta be worked on, there's still somethin else to drive.

:lol: Ah, a truly old fashioned rancher :lol: You drive into my yard, and it looks like a Dodge used car lot from the 1980s. They all run, and throughout the year, they'll all eventually get used. Maybe someday I'll buy another new truck, but I can keep 4 old trucks on the road for far less dollars than I was paying for my new 3500 duallies.

I don't even like electric winders. Our Ford has em but that's the only one that does. They are just somethin that can get jiggled here and there on these country roads and leave you in a bind with the winder down. That don't happen too often with a manual roll up winder.
LOL somethin funny happened the other day in my lil 4x4 Toyota. The radio never has worked in it since we bought it. I don't worry about it, I drive it to go out to the pasture and check cows. Don't need a radio. But for some reason, I was drivin to town, and stopped at a stop sign, and reached down and turned the knob..... :shock: it came on!!!!! Bout skeered me LOL
