I will stick with my fist generation trucks. I like the leaf spring front suspension, lockouts on the front, the 205 Transfer case, and cheap and easy replacement body parts. That and on the truck you are refereing to, it is computerized, and I dont like the thoughts of computers on the oil burner. Tho granted, if somebody were to put one of those trucks in my hands, I'd sell it, and buy a extended cab Dually 4X4 with a 5 speed like Pieter suggested, and then take my current truck,give it a good going over, add an intercooler, put a NV5600 in it, and rebuild the engine and clean it up, and still have alot of money to buy a nice suitable Power Wagon hauler trailer!

1991 W-250 Cummins Powered truck sittin in the garage on jackstands as we speak. I need to get out there and finish putting the front brakes back together.
Lesson learned from this expirence..A heavy duty front end like a Dana 60 costs a heavy duty penny to fix the brakes on! Ouch!
