If you had to buy a truck right now, what would you look for?

I know that is what i would do. $30k - $40k later (10 - 12 for the truck, 20 for the inframe, less if you do it yourself) and you would have a million mile truck if done right.

Thanks for responding. A couple of questions though:

1) Are the fuel pump issues confined to the 2250/2350, or do they include the 871?

2) 871 engine is found on 2007-2010 model trucks, and 1/2 of the 2011's -- I think. The key is the 871 has DPF but no DEF tank whereas the 2250/2350 has DEF. Is this correct?


edit - looks like some of the 2007's are gonna have 870's (no DPF)
