I am at a the junction of deciding whether to keep my 470 forever or upgrading to a 200/570.
Back story: Bought my LX from a MUD member at 220k and The 470 just hit 260k as my daily commuter with very few issues. Like most of you I love the truck but it is worn, yet almost completely rust free, and The wife wants me to look at a newer car. I had a dealer offer me 8k for it and a good deal on a built 16+200. Unfortunately even after they wrote up the buyers order they sold it out from under me…pretty livid. 2 other subsequent deals fell through due to the damage.
Now I am now back to square one trying to decide to just fix/build to just keep it or take a lower trade and cut my losses. Any insight you all have would greatly help! Pictures for reference.
