I have an issue I have been wondering about. When accelerating moderately from a stoplight or slow speeds, sometimes as I am accelerating (i wont really feel as if its dragging), and all of a sudden a burst of more power seems to kick in and it accelerates much faster than it was without changing position on throttle.

Is this enough information to hopefully know where to look?

  That’s exactly how I felt. What’s changed? Information. You can track 5 year old vehicles. You have carfax and the internet to get information on how vehicles are holding up. The discounts for older vehicles with depreciation is hard to pass up. It only took me 50 years to change my ways. The money Ive saved is in the six figures. Of course my driving is less now. I have to write this down as a reminder to myself as the new vehicle bug is always biting. At least buying older vehicles I’m getting better return on vehicles. And I have more to drive.

  I have yet to experience any motor oil shortages, i actually just bought a 5 quart jug at Walmart full syn for under 20 bucks. I'm no keeper of prices and it is the budget Walmart brand, but under 20 bucks for 5 quarts seems as cheap as ever too me. I remember when i changed my own oil with Dino oil it was around the same price for 5 quarts like 3 bucks and that was for regular conventual oil like 20+ years ago. But the shelves were all stocked so no brands were missing and i think mobile 1 was around 28-30 for the 5 quart jug, not really that expensive imo at like 6 bucks per quart.

  I wouldn't buy a 5 year old truck just because of the 6 speed vs. 10 speed. You really have no idea how it was treated and the motors surely have improved over time so I figure the newer the better - get a new or 1-2 year old truck with very low miles - I really prefer to buy new vs. a year or two old too so you can really know exactly how it has been treated and maintained - I think the first 25K miles are pretty critical in the long term reliability of these trucks.
