We are out shopping for a new to us truck, have decided we want a fifth gen 1500 Crew Cab, not looking at the classic really. I know a quad would save some dollars, need the crew vs Quad for the little better interior space.
We just can not budget a new one right now, really can not much go over 40K. We see many 2019 models that are off of leases all "certified". I am seeing a few 2020 trucks out there we can get Even a couple 2021s but they have high miles, their std warranty is shot for miles.
Reading online have seen many issues with 2019 models and yet seen many people seem to be pleased with theirs. What do you all think roll the dice with the 19 models, or should we try for newer I am driving myself crazy worrying and hoping to get a decent truck not a problem case. I have been reading and learning many things to look out for but some oof the things are not so easy to "see" I am leaning towards the 8 over the 6, most that I am finding are e torque models which seems to me to be another thing that could go wrong.
Any advice or suggestions, we just can not swing new, But I do need to get a truck, I really do appreciate any guidance and you all know the trucks!
