I'm sure you've done the math on other vehicle options. How much are you driving the truck in a year?

Welcome to the forum!
Yeah, it is a bit of a contradiction. My trip to work is 38 miles r/t, about 230-260 miles a week. I know I could save with a more efficient vehicle, but can't really afford another vehicle right now-Wife just started her master's program last semester, and I start taking 5 classes a semester (and work f/t) next month. We're trying to not take out any student loans either.

Don't know if they have winter blend over here-Heard on the radio this morning "It will be a bit chilly today with only a high of 83," lol.
