My current truck (which I sometimes feel that I live in) is a 1999 1 ton with a utility body and snowplow that I use almost exclusively for work. It doesn’t have a lot of miles (<70k) but it has been nothing but trouble since I bought it. For instance: changed all 10 coil packs, replaced rotted rear brake line, both rear brake calipers, both rear brake rotors, speed sensor, ball joints, 4wd hubs. Not too encouraging, especially since I'm a total masochist and insist on doing all this work myself. Next truck will most likely be a diesel, and it most definitely will not be the same make! Check out the picture, yes, the front spring is broken in half!

Boy, am I a BLESSED person. My current baby is a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 V8 with the sport package – in Flame Red, of course. She has 180 something thousand miles, now, but when I got her, she had less than 10 miles on the speedometer. Custom ordered her. It’s probably time to start thinking of another truck – something with 4WD – but I’ve grown attached to her – her seat is molded to my rear end after all those glorious miles together. She took a few years to pay off, but my husband has taken good care of her and she will probably carry me right through 200,000 miles with some pampering.
