how many is too many

Ok heres the deal my 96 4x4 5sp was stolen a couple of weeks ago and when it was stolen it only had 120,000 on it so it was just a baby now as i look for a new truck i want another truck like my other one but all i find is trucks with well over 200k on them and i just cant see buying one with that many miles on it to start all over with am i looking too far into the mileage or should i just keep looking?

I have never been afraid of "high miles", a vehicle that has high miles and been maintained is a far better vehicle than one that has next to no miles and was never maintained just fixed when it broke.

From the title I thought the question was about women, in which case my answer is 1.

I bought my truck with 285,000 miles on it, and the motor is perfect... it's just the rest of the truck that demands my attention. If you put all those miles on the truck then you probably have more experience with these trucks than me, but I would look for a 3rd gen based only on what I have read here.
