I have the opportunity to buy my neighbors 2014 laramie. it has 25000 miles and looks new. He's asking $28000 for it. I have a 2017 SLT that i upgraded with leather seats and 20" sport rims. I have 55000 on my truck. would it be worth while selling mine and buying his. Anyone know of any problems with the 2014's

I say no. Don't do it. Not worth it.

If mileage is your only reason to switch, as that is the detail you provided, I say stuck with yours.

About the only benefit with the ‘14 is not having to deal with a locked PCM. Other than that, there isn’t really much difference.

Honestly, not worth it. If nothing more than you're in NY and thats 4 more years of rust potential..

Doesn't that apply to 18 and above, not 17?

Either way, I'd keep the newer truck regardless.

I put leather power seats in my 2012 SLT. When we connected all the wires, my seat belt light and buzzer does not turn off. How do I fix that?

Does your neighbor’s truck have a lot more features than yours? Nicer paint color/combo? $28k doesn’t sound like you’re getting a friendly neighbor discount!
