How's your truck? Any rust?
If you buy a truck, The first thing you need to do is put it on a lift and undercoat it. Thankfully I have the opportunity or you would have to pay someone to do it. Another trick I learned from a mechanic is to drill holes in the truck box near fender wells and shoot undercoating inside the hole. You can leave it open if you have a bed liner or you can buy plastic plugs to close the hole. If you don't do this you'll have a rotted truck in less than 4 years. The rust is a combination of poor metallurgy, cheap metal and the winter road salt, among other things.
