I know everyone loves Detroits but after working on the greasy bastards you really appreciate the other makes that actually can seal there engines up.

Ya never can be sure though, there are some people out there that say that they will pull down to 1200rpm and lug like a CAT.
I'm doing the dumbest thing I've ever done before I guess and looking at getting my own truck. I really like that 96 379 but I don't like that bunk. I'm scared of that aluminum frame and that price on the stretched beauty is out of my price range.
I'm trying to narrow down what I should be looking for in a truck.
Anything bigger than a 36" bunk is a waste in my opinion. They just cost you money in less weight to be hauledLOL
Jory... Your a sick sick man.I found you one, Rick. Affordable, sleeper, COLD A/C, and you can haul your race car.
LOL
My first truck was a 94 377 Pete with a 63" flat top, great little money maker. IMHO start with something affordable and work your way up, that way if u are sick of it in a month you can get out of it easy. Chrome and hoods are cool but they don't pay the bills.
I'm going out on my own next year and I'm either buying a 379X or a 379 legacy class edition, I take a great amount of pride in my trucks (as any of you can see in my past pics in this thread) and I refuse to settle, chrome and hoods don't pay the bills, but a truck you don't love makes it miserable.
Let me say I'm not thinking I can pay 30k for a truck. I'm looking at stuff no more than 15k. And to me there is still good looking older trucks in that price range I think.
I'm looking to haul a grain wagon most likely...
On a side note, I won't drive a Volvo.
Anybody look at the aluminum frame truck?
