    I know you're right but who makes a problem free truck? Can't take gliders home to California next year. At least I like this one and hope to just keep trucking with it. It's too soon to be sure but this truck seems to be getting better mileage at 65 than at 60. Hits a better rpm I think, 1200 instead of 1100.

    You don't need learner mirrors when you drive a Pete!

    Nope haven't missed them yet. And one less thing to shine light in my eye, I am good as is.

    Good balance on this little truck, loads to 79k and never over12k on steers. Closer to 11k most loads. So steers should last longer right? Nice handling in turns too steady.
