Re: A sick truck

If I want new......I will buy new. If I want old stuff.....I buy something old. Never a fan of someone putting new crap in old cars and trucks. But to each his own.
Living in Texas w/o a/c just plain sucks & driving to a show in Houston from the Dallas area @ 3K rpm/60mph makes that 4hr drive feel twice as long not to mention twice as expensive (10 vs. 20mpg's). With just those 2 items, by the time you arrive @ your destination your wore-out. Make the same trip in a newer vehicle that has climate-control & OD & it's nothing.

I love the simplicity of older stuff. But, the efficiency of newer technology can make older stuff (trucks) much more enjoyable.

That truck is extremely nice & they build some beautiful stuff for sure.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
