That is going to be the source of alot of your problems on a new truck will be emissions related, which means very high repair bills because none of that stuff is cheap.  And with a new truck u may have a problem that nobody knows how to fix. With a old truck everybody and there momma can work on a cummins or series 60 .. The only problem with an old truck is you will spend alot of time replacing all the other parts , suspension , drivetrain, etc. U should do some reasearch to figure out what u want to do , there is alot of threads on here that will help give u some realistic numbers on wat to expect from a new truck vs a old truck and some numbers that will help u make the decision if becoming an owner op is wat u wanna do[/QUOTE]
