I am working on some deals at the moment and try and dump my Pete, will take it in the shorts I am sure but I need to get out of the payment. Also looking at some 06' T6's that are half of what I owe on my 07' 379. The bank has no problem on loaning me the money and payments would be cut in half but I need to get rid of mine first and that is hard part.

You're loosing at least 1 MPG due to all that Lucas in the transmission, engine, and the scrubbing tires on the front drive axle.

MM you might want to check the fifth wheel height on the truck you are looking to buy. I looked at some pictures and the fifth wheel looks tall.
