    I love my 2012. Just be careful, after you do your first mod, you'll be wanting to do more. It's an addiction.

    I was looking at that exact truck when I was looking for one around Orange County. However, I decided to buy a new one at the end. With that mileage and being used, its price doesn't make sense when compared to a 2014 model with similar options. The only thing it has going for it is the hard shell cover.

    For their asking price I would also buy new. I bought my 2013 short bed with the exact same options (Entune & JBL/Tow Package) brand new for $32k out the door. And only 23 miles on the ODO.

    Also, once you buy this site will give you the mod bug... I have a bunch of goodies waiting at my parents place to be installed when I go home next week on leave. :D

    I bought my 2013 new for less than that out the door. Same exact truck, just a different color and new. If they can drop that down to about $28k OTD, it would be worth going used.

    On the other hand, certified preowned gives you 100k warranty aswell, so there is always that. You're looking at about $1500 to add that to a new truck.
