At the time my MDT was built (1999)and a few years after no production pick up trucks could pull or carry the weights my truck could. But as the years have moved forward, the pick up trucks now can match or even beat my numbers. That has made the value of the MDT drop as having a regular pickup is a lot more user friendly than the bigger trucks. I don't get very good mileage, 7.5 pulling, up to maybe 9 without a load, but it rarely is used without the trailer attached. It has been a great truck, with only mechanical issue, 1 water pump, 1 a/c compressor, 4 shocks and 4 tires in 110,000 miles. Now due for a set of tires, as they timed out. I've talked of selling the truck, but for the costs of the new pickup trucks, it is less costly to keep mine.
