Re: What Truck To Buy??
going up hill is not the ultimate test of a truck. i was in an 01 fl80 with a 300hp 3126 and a 6 speed. going to albuquerque ALL of the t/t were leaving me behind except for the volvo on the side of the road with a problem at 2am. i also drove a 210hp fl70 that was fine in the flats and again was passed in the pa hills. it is all in what you feel comfortable with. i should also say that both cat engines were rebuilds and the last one was blowing white smoke when i parked it on the shoulder and called a tow truck. three breakdowns in 10 weeks. buy new.

"the cure for rejection is-being able to see yourself as God sees you. It means announcing, "I am what God says I am, I have what God says I have, therefore, I can do what God says I can do". So even if you didn;t get off to a good start, you can still have a great finish"-Bob Gass
