Been thinking, need your opinions

I don't drive anywhere far from home much anymore, so I sold my 03 Diesel Ram and bought a 88 dodge pickup that I may have a total investment of $2500 after fixing it up a bit. Now this was 3 years ago,it's still going strong, no payments,cheaper insurance,plates,not much maintainence.Very reliable.I hope to get at least 4 more years out of it and still sell it for $2000 or maybe more when the time comes.When I had my 03 Ram I was using a 63 Valiant daily when a truck wasn't needed.
