If you live in the north where road salt is used . There is no choice but to purchase a new truck . At 10 years the body is completely
Rotten and full of holes . If washed down and oiled maybe 20 years .
The urea is not for cooling , it is chemical treatment of the exhaust .
I recall when any truck at 100,000 miles was just plain beat and the engine had already had at least a valve job. Now gasoline vehicles travel 300,000 miles with just oil , filters, a starter, alternator , battery , two set of plugs , tires and brakes .
I have no idea why people want a truck and the engine repair bill of $4000 to $10,000 just after the warranty expires. Plus the extra up front cost of the diesel option.
My youngest boy needed a vehicle . Went to our GM dealer . 1500 4X4 double cab Sierra elevation model with the 5.3 and tow package, block heater and remote start. Four extra factory rims, four Blizzak snow tires, chassis oiled at Rust-Chek , air conditioning tax, freight/delivery and 13% Ontario sales tax . $49,935.00 out the door. And that is in the devalued Canadian dollar currency.
If you don t like Tier IV emissions . Blame the people who voted for the two Goverments that for 16 years let the EPA set what ever restrictions that they wanted .
Tier I would have been enough on any off road, stationary emergency application or for emergency service highway vehicles . Tier II would have been plenty

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
