Appreciate all comments. This is likely somewhere between a 10--20G deal. Not new. It will be my "main car."
I was thinking Tacoma, Ranger, Dakota. I don't think I like the newer 4.7 Dakota, "maybe" I'll find a "last year" low miles magnum. Odds are against.
I WILL NOT be buying ANY GM anymore. My Dad got completely screwed on a new GM years ago, and the "much hated" 95 Olds that was Mom's did the usual GM "drop the antifreeze through the intake gasket into the oil pan" crap. They should be paying for that!!
