You're definitely right about that. But I really like the truck so instead of trying to cost justify it, I'll just have to look at it as a necessary expense if and when I have to replace the motor. Plus, it's worth even less now with a knock than when I bought it just a few months ago. Oh well, an engine is cheaper than a car payment.
