One thing comes to my mind.This vehicle is 11yrs old.I'd suspect,that using published "average" figures,that you're in or near,and quite possibly past the 100K miles mark.Though the "old hoss" may have served you well and true until recently,it may be time to fully evaluate the vehicle before spending more on it.Ie: Is it gonna need new tires,brakes,front end work,body rot repair etc in near future,Are the underside items,exhaust,brakelines,fuel and vent pipes about due for replacemnent?Every vehicle deteriorates over time,some faster than others and there comes a time,when it's more feasible to move up,than let it nickle&dime you to death.Technology has done away with seasonal tuneup,quarterly oil changes,biannual tire replacement,cold weather starting issues etc,etc,etc,and taken us in many cases well past the old "100,000 mi-wore out" axiom,with only minimal care required,but still,time ticks away and 10-12 yrs of bumps,vibration,body flex,rust etc is pretty good. As for me,a very low mileage accumulated driver,I traded off my 14yr old Silverado in 06,with only 49K on the clock,simply because within it's near future at the time,she woulda needed,tires,shocks,alignment,belts,fluids,exhaust,converter,minor body rot repair..and I'd just replaced all rusted out leaky brakes,fuel and evap lines.She was a great ole gal,but IMHO was soon to become a money pit.

The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
