Paid $9k for my 1999 K2500 Burb, and every single one of my friends thinks I'm an idiot for doing so. But none of them are car guys. To them, it's
just a vehicle. Means of transport. Well, one is a car guy, but he drives a 2010 Silverado with the 5.3. And he thinks I was out of my mind for spending that much. But he spent $25k on his, used, and it only gets 15-17 mpg. I get 10-11 and have a better truck. Way better. I have 4wd, he doesn't. I have more torque. I have more USABLE torque. My interior is wider. My seats are
far more comfortable. My radio has actual buttons.
To me, the 400 platform is on a pedestal that is untouchable. No other truck ever has, or ever will, be able to compare. To combine pure truck toughness and rugged, reliable, simplicity into a single rig combined with just the right amount of comfort. Not too much, but not a bur under the saddle either.
