    Yeah but you, more so than most, could handle a lot of the problems a cheaper truck might have. Shoot I wish I could fix these things. Make your skills work for you and with you.

    So why does it have to be QC? Whoever that is... Put yourself out there. HA! Listen to me, like it's worked for me... but who knows, you know a thing or two.

    OIC, you want local. Well, I learned so much more about my local scene when I went to talk to the local rig dealer it's amazing. They can be very personable and knowledgeable about all the businesses around there and what's available.

    Of course it helps if they believe you're buying a truck :biggrin_255:
