They don't have "used" prices for 2001 Dak's yet. The difference between 0

This was probably a salesman's daily driver - although I don't know that
for a fact. I will check that out and also ask for maintenance records if
I decide I'm still interested.

Ordering for this model year is over. I would have to order a 2002 which
would probably be more expensive, I would have to wait until ? to get the
truck (I could do that) and also it would have no rebate. OTOH, I could
get EXACTLY what I wanted.
I'm just trying to get a handle on the level of risk.
Thanks for your input!
