I'm debating new versus used, the older trucks are  holding their value, 
but that may be due to the fact that the newer models  have more emissions 
equipment (but not urea injection, that GM and Ford  have).



I was ok until I got to the "urea  injection" part.  I'm not even gonna 
make a bad joke about it pissing me  off or anything.  I just COULD not believe 
that anyone would get to the  point of buying a canister of refined urine.  
Then I checked into it a  bit deeper and found that over 100 million tons 
of synthetic urea per year are  produced world wide.  And finally, I came to 
this article:
_http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,773508,00.html_ 
(http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,773508,00.html)   which 
claims that 
cows not only eat it and get fat on it, but that they  actually LIKE it.  
The article does mention that unless ya got 4 stomachs  like a cow, it's 
probably not really good for ya.

Stranger than  fiction.  Stranger than science fiction.  Almost as strange 
as  "Soylent Green."
