the only problem with new is you dont get much for your extra a money, i have and its alot more money and you are always worried about it. on the other hand i have bought a bunch a couple years old with less than 15k-20k and saved a ton. for example i had a 03 monte i bought in 04, $25 grand new and i got it for less than 15. still under factory warranty, so should be good as new, just somebody else paid the depreciation.
