>>529269576you can advertise a plank of wood that costs 55k doesn’t mean you’re going to sell it
>>529269576I hate crackpipe price threads. It’s like a 20 grand truck if everything is sorted.
>>529269576At first glance, seeing nearly $55,000 for a 30-year-old pickup definitely looks like a typo or an extreme outlier. However, in the current enthusiast market, this specific configuration—a second-generation Dodge Ram 2500 with low mileage—has become a "unicorn" that commands a massive premium.If this truck has the 5.9L Cummins Turbo Diesel (12-Valve) engine, it isn't just a truck; it’s a collector's item.>The "Holy Grail" Engine: The 12-valve Cummins is legendary for its mechanical simplicity and "million-mile" reliability. Because it lacks complex electronics and modern emissions equipment (DEF, DPF), it is highly coveted by enthusiasts and those wanting a "forever" work truck.>Extreme Low Mileage: 78,000 miles is incredibly low for a 1997 model. Most of these trucks have 300,000+ miles and have been rusted out or beaten up on farms. Finding one in "showroom" condition with a clean title and "No Accidents" is rare.Over the last few years, clean 90s pickups have skyrocketed in value. Similar 12-valve Rams in pristine condition have recently sold at auctions for anywhere between $40,000 and $75,000.

>>529269576That 1997 2500 is 54k because it's undoubtedly got the 12 valve 5.9L Cummins Diesel engine with LOW mileage considering those engines last pretty much forever and are indestructible.Now let's briefly discuss WHY a truck with that particular engine would be so valuable right now, shall we? DEF - Diesel Exhaust Fluid was mandated by the EPA as part of an Obama administration initiative. It's a ridiculous system which can under the auspices of "muh climate" but was really just a way to hamper the internal combustion engine and promote electric vehicles. What is it and what does it do? Diesel exhaust fluid is added to engine exhaust in order to heat up, create ammonia, and have that ammonia react with nitrogen oxide in the exhaust to neutralize it as an emission.The problem is that DEF systems are shit. They fail frequently, fuck with how the engine breathes (hampering power output) DEF fluid can thicken and crystalize in the lines, clog things up, it's extremely temperature sensitive and causes all sorts of issues in freezing temperatures as well as very hot ones. This shit breaks and fucks up vehicles so often that entire state governments are replacing what once was a fleet of longer lasting, more fuel efficient diesel trucks with gas powered ones because it's too much of a hassle to deal with.So yes, a truck from an era where those stupid democrat inspired retarded things didn't exist, which has one of the absolute GREATEST diesel engines ever put in a pickup truck, it's going to cost a shitload of money. These things have always held their value well, but before DEF was introduced, this thing would have gone for half this price. Thanks, government for fucking up the market. Oh, and generally speaking if you think used cars are expensive these days you can also thank the Obama era cash-for-clunkers debacle which completely destroyed the cheap used car market forever.

>>529270854
>>529270564A work van with a tiny engine can't tow even a landscaping trailer with some light equipment on it. I'm a landscaper and routinely tow a variety of trailers with thousands of pounds of materials or equipment on them, and job sites in areas outside of major cities can be hundreds of miles away, or in area which require driving off-road. My brother has a business restoring valuable cars for people, he has a truck with a 5th wheel hook-up and tows a trailer capable of hauling multiple other vehicles. Even if we didn't have these businesses, purely for home use having a pickup truck which can haul heavy things without issue is important. I know this is like an inconceivable thing to the European mind, but my entire immediate and extended family lives in several homes on a 50 acre rural compound, and large pickup trucks with powerful engines are a necessity to get anything done and your dinky city dweller plumbing van, though suited well to your needs, wouldn't have very many practical applications here.With that said, most truck owners here are just faggots who buy a powerful truck to drive around town and grab groceries, maybe they help a friend move furniture once every 4 years. These are usually the people who immerse themselves in the obnoxious "muh truck" culture.

>>529270698I've always run gas engines even in the 2500s I've owned, but my old boss years ago had a 98 3500 with the Cummins and it was pretty remarkable what it could do. I know about four people who own modern diesels with the DEF systems, all four of them have had major problems. That's anecdotal of course, and so are "things I've read online on forums" but there are major articles addressing the actual problems and statistical probability that you encounter them. To me it's just obnoxious as something which is superfluous and "fixed" something which wasn't broken under the guise of environmentalism, but not really.
>>529271070
>>529270981works for my plumbing business but yeah I would not want to tow trailers with mowers on them, would prefer a 2.0 diesel for that

>>529269622Of course.Does literally anyone still think that mainstream NPC conservative parties (the republicans in the case of the US) are any less of a boomerocracy?We have these problems because birth rates are low and boomers outvote younger people, that's it. The expensive housing, inflation, mass immigration, crime, low pay, are all literally just that.Boomers absolutely deserve to have their entire "muh portfolio" and public pensions disappear and be flipping burgers at 70 and told to work harder. And it's doable if we stopped paying taxes and started NEETing.

>>529269747Youre right this is actually a nice truck. 55 is still way too much.
>>529272285He's not wrong. Ridiculous CAFE requirements, DEF mandates, cash for clunkers, EV mandates, mass brown immigration (perfect consumer goys), all Democrat programs. People wonder why we have massive trucks with tiny 4 cylinder turbocuck engines that cost $70K, it can all be traced to Democrats.
>>529270306Jew psyop, jews legalized illegal immigration in 1965 but jews have been illegally immigrating to the US en masse since the 1880's. When ellis island was created, contrary to popular belief, it didn't actually turn people away. It was open borders with a checkpoint
>>529270564Because we want them. Why did your country lose its entire motor industry to foreigners?
>>529269576this truck is obviously restored and immaculate and 10x better than a new one
>>529271369The empty curb weight of my tandem wheel dump trailer is about 5,500 pounds, and can haul an additional 10,000 pounds. My truck is capable of hauling 20,000 pounds. I routinely haul near the max weight in my trailer because I do hardscape work (paver driveways, patios, walkways, etc.) and am either transporting pallets of stone, piles of gravel/sand, or broken up concrete we're removing from a jobsite using this trailer and others I have.The maximum towing capacity of the vehicle you propose - a 2.0 diesel transit van is 2,425lbs, or one tenth the capacity of my work truck.

>>529274179Every one that hasn’t returned to the earth is a collector item now. Bodies just rusted away
>>529274105I don't think it was a conspiracy theory in that sense, I think that retarded elitist democrats decided to categorize a huge swath of vehicles as "clunkers" in service of their climate agenda. When the program started in 2009, a clunker was defined as a vehicle which was still operational, less than 25 years old, and got worse than 18mpg combined fuel economy. Ultimately 670,000 vehicles were turned in and destroyed as part of the program which is a small percentage of the total number of vehicles in the US, but was maybe 5-10% of decent used vehicles. What it more importantly did was clear out much of the personal sale used vehicle market, allowing car dealerships to take control of the used vehicle market, where they would curate inventory carefully - shipping many vehicles to places like Mexico or elsewhere to keep supply low and prices higher in the US market. Additionally, the used vehicle parts market is critical to long term sustainment of vehicles, and for many of the 90s to early 2000s used market those parts were crushed into cubes instead of reaching junk yards or being sent in as core parts and refurbished by companies who run the secondary parts market.So basically 5-10% of the market was crushed, largely in the personal vehicle sale realm, car dealerships began to take over as the main holders of used inventory, and since then prices for used vehicles have been systematically driven upwards so dealers aren't undercutting the incredible price increases they justify for new vehicles (which have outpaced inflation in pricing).

>>529269576God I hate used car dealers so much. They are scum. Just like retro video game stores.
>>529296394That must have been pretty scary. I'm glad you're ok though. Here's to growing up and becoming wiser lol.
>>529269747Dead give aways.."—has become a "unicorn" that commands a massive premium." "it isn't just a truck; it’s a collector's item."Only Chat GPT would say some corny shit like this
>>529296557Can you explain?
>>529269622Anon is out of date.
>>529292336Hey buddy, thats a T444E.l not an idi.
>>529296624You are paying a lot more than you need to(dealer), however, pre emissions diesels are also expensive.
>>529296594It was only scary for like 10 seconds. We had a laugh and continued drankin' 2 minutes later. Cheers man. Im not sure if im wiser, I still do stupid shit in my vehicles lol.
My dad says that trucks used to be cheaper than cars back in the day. Is this true?

Ignore me switching between point of view and tenses in the greentext, I am sleepy
At some point it may just be less expensive to get a few draft horses instead
>>529297005how many dicks did you suck on while typing out that reddit twitch chat garbage?
>>529269622Funny how the Republicans didn't to shit to stop all the things the Democrats did (and still refuse to when they hold Congress, the Senate, and the Oval Office at the same time).
>>529269576Cheaper to fix up a truck from the scrap yard. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1aitwAbLnZw
>>529297364That thing is so cool. I love dicking around with shitboxes with my friends. Maybe fire up the grill as well for the true boomer experience. Perfect way to spend a saturday
>>529296951Depends on what you’re comparing, but trucks today are retardedly overpriced.
>>529297005>good deal>Jeeps
>>529269622>that flag >that postHow's the weather from the embassy niggerfaggot?
>>529269576Absolutely disgusting
>>529296992Ok bud.
the worst part is bein alive and a kid when stuff was affordable and seeing how the influx of the dregs of the world to inflate capitalist rot for kikes destroyed the country.
>>529297604Trucks don't seems worth it with their gas mileage. That Ford Maverick ev was the only truck I was looking when I was looking to get a new car
>>529297604Are they? Considering how much more capable they are.
>>529269576You should already know Spanish you one language only brainlet subhuman lol.How are you so fucking stupid you only know one language lmao.
>>529270691Meanwhile you can buy a focus for about 2-3k
>>529297604Out of curiosity I got a price on a 2026 Silverado W/t, they want 52k. Four cylinders too.
>>529297786The age of antiquing is over . Oldfags with old barns filled with junk they let go at old man prices are over. It's all resellers hitting up eBay and Google ai to evaluate. You can't really go treasure hunting anymore.
>>529269622Funny because all the Republican conservative general contractors hit Mexicans
>>529297833I have a work truck like your photo (older) and a compact sedan, the sedan is superior in every respect other than hauling shit around. Sedan handles better, better mileage, more seats, closed trunk, brakes faster, far easier to park. Unless you are hauling bulky shit around, pickup trucks are stupid to drive. I really don't understand why larping faggots want to drive them so bad.
>>529297834i speak english because i don't have shit colored skin like you do >>529297922and it gets worse and worse each year. what really sucks is when you realized all the shit you had growing up are now also treasures but you lost them, threw them away, or literally gave them away, or sold them for cheap
>>529269747>has become a "unicorn" that commands a massive premium.No, it does not faggot.Does Walmart raise the price to $1000 on the last pack (scarce) of Charmin?No, they do not.A modest "premium" is permitted for "unicorn" items that possess higher Utility value, but this example is ludicrously "valued".This is classic Unearned Income.
>>529297945Where did that response come from? I was conversing about price.
>>529298035Yeah best not to mourn the trappings of materialism. That's how they farm your loosh.
>>529297833Now post a current-day Laramie-trimmed diesel 2500 quote.
>>529298131yeah that is the silver lining. part my own retarded trajectory and part hell clown world. i am firmly outside of the matrix
>>529298224I’d call a new tradesman similar or better to be in compared to an old Laramie. Add like 10 more grand for a diesel.
>>529298074Don't buy it if you think it's too much, just don't be a whiner if someone else decides it's a good price to buy at.
How quick can a journeyman tradie pay off a 100k truck? Do they have better margins then restaurant owners, or farmers?
>>529298405You're a retard apologist for shitty, greedy practices.
>>529269576bro just wait til you see the price on a 1997 toyota. its like $80k for a clapped out 300k mile odometer tacoma
>>529270460why doesnt the MIGA trumpkike and the jew republican party just get rid of all the faggoty EPA restrictions and remove them from law?
The problem is that all you fatasses that NEVER even changed shutoff valve or a light bulb started to buy Pickup trucks as a fashion accessory, then the Capitalist system went into Overdrive and since Trucks do not count towards CAFE, The BIG 3 started to add more crap into the trucks to sell to any idiot and soon enough a $30k Truck became $80K. Now most of your faggot sons cannot even drive a manual car anymore because they got rid of them too for the cash cows.Why not just drive over the Canadian border and pick up a Truck here, they go for $80Kanadian Pesos and since the exchange rate is so bad you will make off like a bandit.Just make sure you dont talk to any Jeets here, avoid them at all costs.
>>529299069no, the problem is jews, faggots, niggers, mexicans, and jeets like youno go suck some maple syrup off whatever queer canadian is letting you live with him so he is on the "right side of history"
>>529298476They're developing robots to do that shit, I wouldn't put all my eggs in the journeyman basket for any long term plans.
