[QUOTE="AllOut, post: 1991101, member: 12099"] Hey I buy what I want as well so I'm with ya all the way there buddy LOL I also like the cab space of my SD, but trust me it's not worth it if you don't use tye truck for it's intended purpose. Mine is for sale right now cause of that reason. BUT a 3/4 or 1 ton rides no where near as nice I don't care who you are. Plus a straight axel front.... As far as half tons being underpowered, a few hundred bucks in a 5.3 will get you damn near 400HP and a 6.2 is a beast!!!! Your last statement about longevity shows you have not much or no knowledge of trucks. Maybe 30 years ago when a gas burner was wore out at 100k miles, ya maybe.
