I believe that I have a blown head gasket on my truck and its a older modle I love the truck. My question would is a two parter how much in your opinion do you think the repair would be? Or would it be a better choose to invest in a new truck?

If you love this truck get it block and pressure tested to find out where its leaking. Are you overheating and white smoke coming out of the exhaust pipe?

Now for the new truck its impressive but the bill hurts if you can afford it -go for it.

I can get a new truck I don't want to though I've had it since '94 and I've gotten my moneys worth out of it but its been good to me this is the first major thing that has gone wrong. The truck isn't over heating much but it is a little and I do have the white smoke but its usually only when I start it up or I idel for a while.
