    I tried to trade a 20 star car heavy haul with less than 300,000 miles and buy a new 24. 100 grand is all they would offer. Kw, Pete, WS it didn’t matter. WS did offer 120. I told the all to kick rocks and I bought a trailer instead. I would have done the deal if the still wanted 200 for a new truck, but no they all wanted 275

    I would never drive one . Suspension is made very cheaply. Steering geometry is all off on most of these from factory. Interior is all held up with plastic clips. Weather proofing is non existence. Pay me 136k and i will make you a truck from scratch that will surpass any truck on the market . Power train will go 1 million miles and will drive like a Rolls-Royce

    If they think that a 2016 model years is old they would think that I’m even crazier buying a 2007 KW to get away from the emission systems.
