Re: New vs. building old one
My daughter drives my 99 3/4 extended, it's 5400# and air bags, she'll walk away from most any reasonable accident.
My personal drive of choice is a square. I just can't get comfortable in the new trucks with the seat mounted belts. And the lower foot room isn't good.
I haven't had a truck payment in 10 years, my insurance is reasonable, my plates are $100 less per year for the square. But mostly I just like it.
