Yes, buying a truck is a big investment and you must keep in mind that every year, to keep it running properly, you are going to have to spend money to keep it rolling. By keeping up on maintenance and “listening” to your truck, some of the bigger ticket fixes can be avoided. Tires and the parts related to them are the biggest headache when owning a truck, but little things like buying a calibrated tire pressure gauge and keeping track of low tires can save you money. Keeping up with a preventative maintenance program is a good piece of advice for a healthy and safe truck out there on the road.
