Plus diesel trucks are CHEAP right now

 

If you need to build credit get a credit card with a low limit high interest rate and pay the balance off every month, do that for 6 months then go apply for truck credit.

The worse thing to do is buy more then you can afford.

 

If you do that make sure you have a $0 balance on the card having a balance on the card will drop your credit rating.

 

Yes Well I am keeping the Regal.I love that car.Dad wants to keep the S10 for himself now just because diesel is more expensive than gas right now.So I would only be able to trade the Regal and I really don't want to if I don't have to.

 

Thats fine just work hard and save your money and you will get your Duramax.

 

hate to say it but i started of with a 86 mazda b2000 2wd. just worked my way up.
buy cheap do a little work and resell for a profit or try to at least break even.

starting right off with a older dmax still isn't cheap. i havn't looked at any used dmax but i would guess a older one still around 20G.

i havn't hear much good about the 6.5s... if your bound to stay with GM??
i would go with a 6.2 and you can turbo them easy.
you can get a really nice 6.2 for 5g or less easy!
also the 6.2's are solid front axle 10 bolt or dana 60

 

Well I really don't care about the axles.I won't be doing much towing anyway.This would strictly be a work truck to haul and occasional load.

 

If you arent doing much towing then axles wont really matter all you will need is to have the truck get you from point A to point B. The 6.5s are good trucks but they do have so heating issues, and if you are willing to put some money into them they will run great.

 

Well I wouldn't put alot into it just enough so I can get higher resale value and get rid of it in 2yrs.It's just a truck to get me by.Although I would prefer it to have a 12v Cummins instead of the Detroit Diesel.

 

Then you'll just have to build one.
