Another thing you obviously haven't thought of: what happens when that high mileage car has some major maintenance? I'm going to assume that if you are looking at a 150k+ mile car, and are considering taking out a 6k loan for 5 years, that money is a little tight.

So what happens if the car grenades, you can't drive it, but still have to make payments on it? 150k mile car that you will owe money on for 5 years, not including maintenance. How fucked are you if that happens?

Not even close, lol.. That car could go easily for 12k private sale as long as it has a clean history and is in decent condition.

Your right, 12k is the low end.. It can climb from there..

They're nice ass trucks, lol.. And a properly maintained one can and will last another 150-200k lol.
