    Why not look for the same truck at a different dealer? Might be someone easier to deal with... or look for a vulva made the same way? You really liked blackie, why not have the best of both worlds?

    We have the same position with our vehicles. Yes they take a little maintenance but everything about them is known to the Nth degree with future work pending. Once we lost a engine on one of our older vehicles after it's main bearings ground down too much and threw the shaft out of balance. We should have replaced the engine with another knowing the rest of the vehicle was in super good shape. But no we replaced it with a Buick that we got ten years out of until the fluid accumulator (Made of plastic BTW) started to fail on local driving making a hash of that transmission. It would have been 1700 to replace just the accumulator valve.

    I emailed them. That sleeper is actually more what I'm looking for. A bigger fridge and a sink. Bathroom isn't that important.
