<p>[QUOTE="Ezrider_48501, post: 4569728, member: 63321"]all of last year i had maybe 2 days of unplanned downtime due to repairs. the key is to not treat a old truck like a new one. you have to pay a little closer attention to them catch things early keep em greased up and take care of them they will. fix things before they break when you are going to have planned time at home anyway. being mechanically inclined is a plus as well. i could see a old truck to be very hard on someone that runs every single little repair into the shop. but if you got some mechanical aptitude and take on a lot of the small stuff yourself its not so bad and if you can do bigger stuff as well its even better[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
