I JUST got off the phone with a buddy of mine and was telling him about this thread and the discussion.He asked if I had been hiding in a cave or what.He just gave $3600.oo for the full meal deal from Cat in his E model.He proceeded to tell me if I was that far behind on parts prices I'd best leave that 007 alone if I get healed up and just try to get a job as a Walmart greeter because I'm living in the stone age.

[quote=550hpW900L;475683]Thats what they want you to do, buy a new truck so you "save" on parts. But i got news for them..... I will never buy a newer truck than 2003

When I was your age 28 years ago we said the same things about V12 Detroits, KTA 600's, 359's and w900A's. The only thing that's guaranteed in life is death and change!
