2019 Silverado

[C-Money]

Wow! That thing is nice!! GM made a good looking truck!

[CaNINE]

If my 2000 Silverado ever decides to go belly up.....but the way it's going I'll be looking at a new 2029 Silverado.

A friend of mine just bought a 2018 Chevy 2500.  $52,000!!     Just no way I could do it and I can afford one.  I'll just stay with my 2002 Tacoma until it dies.

And 52K for a new truck is just kind of a mid level model.  It's crazy what these things cost now days.  Bought my wife a new Explorer Platinum last fall, I still can't believe what that cost. 

Hey, if you ever decide you want to update to a 2013 Tacoma I could help you out with that, low miles too.

I have heard a diesel is available for 1500 Silverados in 2019.

In January I bought a 2018 Ram 2500 Laramie with the 6.7 Cummins. I wish it was $52K..... I love that truck but man have they got spendy over the past 5-10 years

pick up trucks, a few SUVs and a few sports cars are where the auto manufacturers make their profit.  They "lose" money on the economy class cars, but get recognition and volume to bring people to their truck lines.

Ya, that's gotta be about a 65K, or more, truck I'd imagine.  These new trucks are really nice, no doubt about it, but the price of them has gone crazy. 

The last diesel I bought was a new 2004 Superduty Lariat diesel 4dr in the fall of 2004.  The only option it didn't have was a sunroof, otherwise it was loaded.  Bought it on the Ford X-plan, which saved me a little money, and it was $35,600 less tax.  Fast forward fifteen years and they are double that.  Crazy!!!

I don’t get how it’s even possible or reasonable...are they doing 10yr loans these days or what?

some young guys working construction on jobs I am on are paying 12-1500.00 payments on diesel lifted trucks that never leave the pavement.

Making what?  25-30/hr?   Yeah, they’re broke.  Lol


That’s because they’re idiots and can’t really afford one.  Not only can they not afford one, but it sounds like they don’t really need one either.   Probably don’t have a pot to piss in, but they like the look they portray.

If you’re buying a new diesel and you don’t have at least 20-30k to put down, you probably shouldn’t be jumping in.   The next recession will weed out the idiots.

Lol, yeep

But boy do they look cool parked out in front of their apartment or in front of moms house that they still live in.

That’s a way to make it possible I suppose but definitely not reasonable.
