    I looked for a decent truck at a reasonable price for a long time. Everyone wanted unreal prices for trucks with 100K miles so I finally decided to buy a dealer demo with 3000 miles. After discounts and rebates I ended up not paying much more than I would have for a used truck with many more miles and I still have a full warranty.

    I have a similar budget and I'm going to end up traveling a couple hundred miles to buy a decent used truck. That being said, nearly everything in the 20k range had a ton of miles or something funny about it, no matter where you go. Go up to $23-$24k and you'll find some good to great stuff. Just not close by.

    Get you a mid 90s f150 with a 300 4.9 inline six with 5 speed and don't look back. I bought a 1990 like that for 1400.00 5 years ago. With that said, new shocks, fuel pump in front tank, nothing major
    She aint the purtiest thing but pulls my camper/boat no problems.

    Take a trip to Alaska with the money you saved. What we did. At my age 53, I have realized that it's not so much what you have but what you do and who you do it with.

    Who can remember the date of their first flat screen tv bought ?
