Oh, I agree with the "why shouldn't they" argument. But I'm just not sure the upgrade is worth that kind of money, even if I had the cash to burn. A Gladiator with a 5.7 HEMI would be plenty for me (and most people). A crate 5.7 from MOPAR is $5,410 and a 392 is $8,045, so even a 5.7 swap would...

I know locally that's the going rate for the "lowly" 392 swap...a Demon 6.2L-swap is an eye-watering $83k (USD)!! So it seems Jeep is of the mindset that if those who want it are willing to pay that for an aftermarket swap, why not charge the same and have a factory warranty to back it up? Not...

Ooo…do tell. And post pics.

It all just sucks because I need a truck, but I don’t think I’ll be buying one any time soon.

I suppose red lights as camp lights would also be helpful to preserve your night vision.

I'd rock that.

That’s kinda slick…

My brother and I did that! My parents had a 1975 F-250 Ranger XLT SuperCab with a slide-in Vanguard camper that we grew up camping in. I distinctly remember crawling through the back slider window of the truck and through the sliding window of the camper to go back and forth on long road trips...

It’s on Vancouver Island on the west coast of Canada (and has been it’s entire life according to the Carfax). Not sure where you’re located, but if you’re still interested I’ll DM the ad to you.

Alright. Y’all have convinced me to keep looking. Too bad, it was a good looking truck that ticked a lot of boxes. The search continues. There’s a 2020 F-350 XLT FX4 with the 7.3L that’s also caught my eye. 30k miles, sub-$40k. More money, but less headache.

Appreciate the replies from everyone thus far. Elaboration would also be appreciated! @DirtWhiskey : bulletproofing would be the plan, using this kit from BCDiesel. They’re relatively local to me, so I’d get them to install. I’ll be calling them on Tuesday (after the Canadian Thanksgiving long...

/thread (?) :sneaky:

I've been in the market for a new truck for a while now, and as much as I'd like to buy new, prices are just too crazy right now. I'm also working on a startup small business, so I am not interested in financing anything and want to pay cash. I've come across a minty-fresh 2005 F-350 SRW Super...

Got it.

Ah. I thought it was just him +1 and a soon to be kid. The LC seems big enough to me for the time being. It’s not like an Alu-Cabin has a massive amount of room.

Maybe I missed it, but why not build up your LC?

Ugh. But what are rigs going to look like in 10-15 years? Will "gas vs. diesel" still be a discussion? Will back-country exploration still be allowed in NA (or abroad)? Will we still have our health, our mobility, or even be around? Nah, don't wait. Don't put it off. Don't assume you'll "get to...

Indeed.

Ditto on both points! Sub'd.
