Keep what you have older trucks are better. The more that any type of car truck or suv rely on electronics the more issues they have.
Personally I hate new trucks, a truck is a tool and a toy. Not something to be babied and garaged and kept out of the dirt and mud. Newer trucks cant hold up to the old hunks of steel with wheels.

Kev, if I understand it right she wants you to get a new one, and you want to keep your old reliable one. If so, most guys would love to have a girl that says you can get a new truck. However I do understand that you do not want to get rid of a truck you love. So, I say keep it. She just needs to understand that a man and his truck have a special relationship that no woman shall come between. 
I also showed your post to my lady Wanted, she laughed haha!

I still wish I had my 1980 F-100, 'nuff said.
Never complained about being loaded down, never had any issues with it I didn't cause, just needed more maintenance than the new ones. I'd rather repack wheel bearings, change fluids, etc. than deal with all the electronic BS.
