    So you want one truck to do the work of several different configurations of truck? I want one handy tool that'll do the work of my entire toolbox, but, like your aims, mine aren't going to be realized there.

    You need a Transformer but they're only Petes and Western Stars.

    I would buy a 2003 or older FLD long hood with a steel bumper and without all that aerodynamic skirty crap. Nice looking trucks but you're going to have to decide on height.

    Columbia/ Century/ Coronado Mid Roof XT.

    I had a 94 FLD from new for 5 years and the current Columbia from new for almost 9 years. The Columbia has been as good a truck as the FLD. I've never looked back with either one
