time to let go of older truck?

my neighbor just asked me to buy his maybe 2 months ago 05' columbia, it was under warrenty when he got it. had everything go bad on it. it was all covered, I mean everything & more than once. from turbo, dropped a valve, twice, e.g.r. total rebuild of engine, anyway he asked $18,000 for it. gone now, but he said nothing but problems,

 

What truck do you have now?

 

That prices seems high to me. $20-30k seems normal for a truck that year with that mileage. Keep looking. Pick up a truck paper.

 

I have a 2005 Century with 60 series detroit. replaced egr twice, and the 3rd time I bought a kit that just shut egr off. Replaced #1 injector twice 1st time was under warranty. 925000 miles and running great now. I go 20000 on oil changes and never hafe to add a drop inbetween. If you get it and have egr problems go to egrtuner.com.

 

this price is to high,you find for this money 07 with this milage

 

You'll be so-o-o-o-or-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-y-y-y-y!

 

My experience is dump the money in the old truck. That 350E is a good motor. Should be uprateable with some iron changes. Should get good mileage if driven properly and has no egr valve anywhere near it and good luck finding the urea tank on that 93. Most people I talk to say invest your money in rebuilding your old equipment not in buying equipment that will be even more unreliable than old faithful. Warranty or not if the wheels don't turn there is no money in return.
