Default trade 06 1500 hemi fro 05 2500 ctd

Here is the the dilemma, I have a 1500 hemi qc 4x4 slt. I pay 350 monthly for, on the lot there is a 05 2500 ctd laramine 4x4 lifted with everything I want on a truck. pymts would be aprox 580 monthly. I can afford it but would make things a little tight around the house as my wife does not work and she has a 07 fj cruiser that I pay 550 month for.

i mean if its the diesel you always wanted y not but the payments seem a little steep its all about what kind of income you have. you shouldnt have to make your life harder because of your vehicles.

I checked off the "wait for a better deal" box.

I'd rather see you get a somewhat stock older CTD and build it up rather than buy one that someone else has already modded. That way you can learn as you go, and also pay as you go. If money is tight one month, hold off and do the mod the following month. With a steep payment like 580, you aint gettin away from that !!

I'd hold off...

from the way i read your post it sounds like the money will tighten up if you get it. i say keep the 1500 and wait for a better deal to come along.
