Two trucks ago I had a ford powerstroke, 04 f250 fx4, and when i traded it in it had 118,000 on it. I rack up the miles on my trucks, about 8,000 on average a month. So the miles should not be a real big downfall, considering that is when the diesel really gets warmed up.

Do you sleep? No wonder your looking for a laptop mount. Where the heck are you driving that you put 2000 miles a week on your truck?

well texas is a HUGE place. You can drive around texas alot and never see all of it. I will drive from houston to dallas and back in a day. That is why i drive a nice truck, because i WILL roll in style . Yeah the directions that the GPS gives me makes my life alot easier.
