    I'd drive that. I'm already driving a two stroke Detroit.

    If i went to work for a company today and they gave me the choice of a 20 year old truck or a brand new one. I’d take the 20 year old. I can work on it myself and keep rolling while the new junk is putting its driver in the poor house. All the drivers that always give someone grief for having an older truck that may look a little worn because they can’t or won’t drive anything unless it is new never really notice that that older truck is never parked next to theirs at a dealership or shop waiting to get stupid stuff fixed. Kw has been building trucks since 1915 when they were the GearSix motor co. Took 100 years for the technology to catch up to them and destroy the “world’s best” image. Same with Pete. New tech has taken the CL off of “Best in Class” the new cabs are the worst. Don’t buy one expecting it to be intact, solid, and still rattle free like a 80 year old small window Unilite or the 1100 cabs in 20 years.those cabs were built like B-17’s.
