I have a 2004 GMC Yukon that I really enjoy.

When the motor goes out I will put new one in. When the transmission goes out I will put a new one in. Etc, etc.

I plan on driving it as long as I can get parts for it.

Or until gasoline is outlawed.

That’s the point.

They will probably STOP making parts for IC engines......................

My Denali XL has 180K and the rust is starting to pop thru a bit but it runs great!

I am of the same mindset with my old K5 Blazer.

350 V8s and TH350 transmissions are plentiful.

Over the weekend I had some heartburn over a bad fuel pump and stuck oil filter.

New pump should be here Wednesday and swap out over the weekend.

**** “When the motor goes out I will put new one in. When the transmission goes out I will put a new one in. Etc, etc” ****

Get a 3/4 Dodge w a Cummins and it is just the opposite ... you transplant the engine into something else (and add an Allison tranny)
My 2003 Ram Runs and Works great but everything else is rusting and falling apart.
