not sure on the payment but he got it for 43000 out the door on a 6 year loan. so with interest prolly between 650 and 750 a month. luckily for him its a "shop" truck.

I know a guy just bought an '08 mega cab. Man, that cab is big! :shock: He got it for $41k, went to Pa to get it. He drove it around town for the 1st month, got a DPF code. THe dealer forced it into regen to clean it out. Since then he's been driving it back and forth to Plattsburgh, 4-5 hours 1 way. He said no problems since, and he's getting 21-22 mpg.

I'm thinking it's time to start making moonshine................

You know, pretty soon, it will be cheaper to clean parts in Brakecleen than diesel..................
