[QUOTE="Cowabunga, post: 2004658, member: 718"] Don't believe the nonsense about certain vehicles being 'bomb proof' and lasting almost indefinitely. Once they get to a certain age and after a certain amount of use, partly dependant on how they were driven and serviced but not exclusively, they will break. For one thing the rust will get them. Chassis first. If not rust then the example of next door's lightly used high milage current-shape Navara with a chassis broken in half is an example. Now its head gasket has gone. Scrap time I think. There comes a point where these pickups are between 10 and 15 years of age that they can be far more cost than they are worth. At 10, I would seriously value most pickups as near zero value. Get given one and you have some spare cash to keep them going for a while, but there are very few indeed still on the road at 15 years of age regardless. [/QUOTE]
