I am looking to buy a new truck tell me if I should go new or stick with the older modles. I have a 1996 and love it but want to keep it too and get another one if they just as tuff.

I'm a fan of the older models. To me, the new models just look to - round. I want my truck to luck like a truck. Give me a great big tough square and I'm happy.

I am a huge fan of the older models, also. I think the newer ones are just trying to look 'modern' and they are losing the look that made a truck a "truck".
Plus, I think the value is better in a truck that is a few years old vs. a truck that is brand new. My husband likens it to wine. He likes the seasoned versions and believes the quality is better.
