    I've run a few... both US and European marques.... I don't miss a single one of them. Although I suppose I did appreciate the mobility I had running an 84 Astro with a 45x96 flatbed with a Donkey lift on the back when I was delivering sod. That being said, I could've made due with a conventional just fine in that instance.

    I don't miss them at all. For one thing, if you're involved in a wreck, you're the first one there.
