Very similar story here in Northern NY. My '04 Dakota has begun literally come apart at the seams. Had a rear quarter panel fall off six months ago and the gas tank hit the ground last month. It was like new when I bought it in '08 and since it's been just a farm truck I've only put 20k miles on it since. I had decided that since I have all but retired and don't drive much anymore that I would get rid of both my high mileage car (280K miles) and the Dakota, and get a decent truck to replace both.
Problem is that here in NY ten years is about the limit for any vehicle before salt and corrosion takes its toll, so if one buys used it is already well on its way out.
So I began watching craigslist in Phoenix, AZ and I just bought a like new '16 Chevy Colorado 4-Door (have to have the back seat for the canines) with all the bells and whistles for $17K, $6-$8 thousand less than anythig comparable I could find here; and there is absolutely zero rust! So for a $450 plane ticket, a few hundred in gas & tolls, and a four day cross country sightseeing drive, I should be ahead by at least 3-4 years.
