    The City.

    It's too short ;) I got a W9L for a first truck. no regrets...might have opted for a midroof but love the flattop look. 265" just right I thought... now I'm looking into stretching it out a bit. Least then I'll have a legit excuse when I go to the city and they want it blind backed down an alley off a busy one way street :)
    If I could justify getting another: I'd get this and strap a 36" stainless sleeper on it, swap the motor to something I prefer and call it a day ;)

    the bottom line is money: if you can make enough to satisfy your bills and your lifestyle you can afford to have what you want. I have seen all the arguments for aerodynamic trucks. They are valid, but never gonna win me over. I make money, and I'm not scared to spend it on my truck. I love it more than anything else in my life. It's my prerogative. I'd rather have nothing than something I didn't think was right for me.

    Well im not buying it, just like that look. And reds not my color.

    Ruthless, I concur, we are in it for the money... nothing wrong with a little Pride & Polish. And that would be sharp with a 36.
