with Huck completely but being I drive a big block as a daily, I'll throw in my .02

Don't be affraid of one as a daily.
Mine starts in below zero temps/runs sweet and it has all the driveability I could ask for.
Being it's a work truck that always runs loaded with a minimum of 600lbs in the bed I couldn't imagine having anything else.
