i would still prefer a duramax truck.   but the price of entry is way up there

[sandblaster]

I tried to dig up some dirt on the auto company but they appear to have a good reputation.

That looks like a nice truck, hard to tell with the pictures but body looks straight, interior looks good, only thing I saw was the corrision on the wheels which isn't a big deal,

I would run and hide from the ford 460, I had 3 in the late 80's early 90's good trucks bought a new one in 97, biggest pile of crap, no power, single digit fuel mileage empty or loaded. thats what drove me to the diesel.

Nice looking truck, I know everything here is personal opinion but the only 2 Alison Transmission trucks i've driven/owned they short shifted every gear and would not down shift for any hills until whatever the recommended RPM (witch was wayyyy to low) If you weren't towing anything huge i don't think it would matter.
