Like a buddy said, "If you keep it more than 3yrs you're married to it". Well 440k and its mine. Just had ATS build a motor for it and hope it will go another 400k. ;D ;D ;D

Well...my Ford is 20 years old. I hope to be able to say the same about the ram in 17 years.

I think I'll keep mine until the first lift pump fails ;D. Actually I've never sold a truck with less than 140K on it. This one will be kept a lot longer than that. I've never had a truck that I liked as well as this one. It tows my enclosed trailer with car, get good mileage, gets me to where I want to go hunting and fishing. Ya can't ask for more than that.

Re:How long are you going to keep your truck?

Thats the right question to ask how long are you going to keep it? Since we all know they will last a very long time. ;D
I have been thinking about selling mine only because I need a bigger tow vehicle. Wifey loves the truck and it may be tough. Its an 02 3500 just barely broken in. Got to admit I love this truck.

I plan to keep B.E.R.T. until I buy something that is too big for it to tow ... should be quite a while I reckon.

Probably till it loses all it's hair and teeth. Actually, I like Gary's response - it has great lines and I really love it. I've told my Mrs that I'm just as satisfied with this truck after two years and almost 60k miles as I was when we bought it.
