    lol I'm trying to not get screwed or turn the truck back and loose what I've already paid for it. Even selling it I won't get much if any thing over payoff.

    If you ever gave a big torque CAT a chance you would fall in love with the sheer ground pounding rumble of CAT power. No other engine even comes close to satisfying that itch in a guy or gal.

    When pullin a hill at 1300 rpm just feelin all that torque is just unreal.

    Old wives tales Monkey boy. If a CAT is properly taken care of and properly driven they get mileage too.
