    I don't know. I sure got lazier after buying this than I was with my paid off truck. Haven't figured out how that happens yet but it did.

    EPA is fixing to crush people with gliders. I was seriously considering a Fitzgerald or DB glider. Numerous people including OOIDA advised me about what Uncle Sam had in the pipeline that would kill the glider kits. I am waiting until after the election and then some to see what will happen. I don't want to put up that type of investment only to get shafted in 2 years lol.
    Before you consider the truck.....what do you plan on pulling?

    Also.....you don't want to get bogged down with an insane truck payment. Kevin Rutherford has some good stuff about this at letstruck.com

    I'm planning on pulling a 48 flat . I have decided not new . Now my problem is do I want a 2010 or a 2007 and earlier. As I understand it the 2010 worked out the bugs and is before def so if you want clean Idle that's the way to go . But I feel like a lot of people are saying stay away from all the emissions stuff unless you want to run Cali .
    I don't want to run Cali but I'm worried I'll buy a truck pre emissions and then a bunch of states will adopt the clean Idle and the price will jump on the used ones .

    But this forum has been real helpful calming me down as I tend to over think things . I was ready to buy a new truck until reading thru this forum and ultimately some one said
    " buying a new truck so that your covered in case somthing go's wrong is a bi+ch move and your surrendering your profits in advance just in case somthing go's wrong latter and if your a bi÷ch then you shouldn't be in bussiness for yourself. "
