I havent seen any regular cab work trucks , except for fords -- but then again, i havent looked too hard either.

I'm holding out (well... saving up that is... ) for a diesel. The extra mileage and resale $ offsets the extra cost for me because i'm a high mileage driver.


A buddy of mine just upped the ante in the daily driver wars with an International CXT painted in his company colors. I'm trying to compete with vintage steel as my calling card , but i'm afraid most people just wouldnt understand and would simply think i'm a broke hillbilly ---- people are too vain today --- however, a 50 or 60 series body from the 50's or 60's - mounted on a modern chassis, might do what i need

I dunno --- -- i could go on and on
