In my experience! New can be as bad a used. Sometime in the last year or so; there was a posting asking about a used truck, & if anybody had experienced problems with that particular model. & asking weather it would be worth buying. The case vehicle was a mid 2000's chevrolet truck. Dont remember how many miles; but I went through the file folder on my 2005 Chev 3500, 4wd, reg cab, dsl, non dually. I went right down the list of repairs (warranty + non warranty). I spent like an hour typing everything with dates, & milage on the post. About 25 - 30 different repairs in 125,000 miles.
I factory ordered, & took delivery with 6 miles on the odometer. Just a basic recap. The truck is on its 4th radio, & that one is going out as I type this. The amber cab lights are leaking rain water for about the 4, or 5th time. The 72 month dual batteries have been replaced for the second time in 6 years! & GM wouldnt cover them! & if the batteries get low; the truck will start, & then shut off after about 5 seconds, & doesnt even tell You why, or what happened! ANY OTHER VEHICLE WILL STAY RUNNING TILL YOU GET SOMEWHERE TO GET A NEW SET OF BATTERIES!!! It had to be towed both times because I couldnt tell the batteries were low. I thought it had to be something else. The list could go on for several more minutes; But You get the idea. One more thing... LED lights are supposed to last forever. In 40,000 miles I had 7 go out in the dash at separate times. Finally went to get them replaced. The bill was for $860. You cant just take them out & replace them now. They are soildered in! GM requires You replace the electronic item they are attached too!
"NEW" DOESNT MEAN A THING TO ME ANYMORE!!! WITH VEHICLES IT MEANS "FUEL EFFICIENT" JUNK!

Today's Featured Article - A Belt Pulley? Really Doing Something? - by Chris Pratt. Belt Pulleys! Most of us conjure up a picture of a massive thresher with a wide belt lazily arching to a tractor 35 feet away throwing a cloud of dust, straw and grain, and while nostalgic, not too practical a method of using our tractors. While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
