Hi folks,

Well, as a mechanic for 45 years, I can tell you that too few miles is as bad or worse than having too many. Gaskets and seals dry out in engine, tranny, differential--everywhere. Weatherstrips become brittle if they haven't been "flexed," the wastegate shaft rusts in the closed position (causing uncontrollable overboost), the list goes on and on. Sure, if the truck has been stored in a climate-controlled facility and driven at least once a week, that's another story--but those trucks are rare.

Best,

Ranger
