The technology aspect, you can wait forever, if you are waiting to see what comes out next. I.E. My first computer was a Commodore 64. I could have waited for the 128 but would that waiting have been smart. I don't think so. I learned alot off of that little computer. I think the same transfers to all points of life.

Don't buy a new truck due to future technology it's defeatist. The next truck is always going to be different and most likely have some things that are better. If I went by the wait to see what is next, I would still be driving a 1970 1/2 ton, or a 69 3/4 ton, or a 71 Ranchero GT. You just can not put technology advances into the mix when deliberating on a new vehicle. My truck has very few convienance options, A/C and cruise + upfitter switches. I have all the mechanical options. I would sell a 20?? in a heartbeat if it was starting to cause problems if not I would keep it, but don't say it is because you are waiting for new technology. It will be obsolete the day you buy it. Just like computers and video games. J.M.H.O.
