Now I have been born and rasied to think breathe and eat FORD, matter of fact I own a Ford but I have to say for every event I've been to like Muddfest, Felda all the truck shows and pulls chevy has always out done the fords.  Now I'm not saying Ford is a piece of crap I love my truck and every other ford I've owned but overall chevy trucks have always out performed the ford trucks.  Plus I hate to say i but I think chevy looks better too. :dunno.gif

Must be different on the pavement. Go to a FFW or an NMRA and watch and be amazed. Then go to a Super Chevy or a F-body Shootout you'll be a good 2 seconds slower in the fastest heads up class. 

On a side note, only kiddies play in the mud.  j/k.  -Mark

Yunts and Chuck, The best truck and the best price. Who can give me a price on a 3/4 ton diesel work truck. Regular cab or crew cab . I priced one from Chev ( reg cab long box 4x4) for $35,030.00 with trailer hitch,skid plate and off road tires

Big D, was that a crew cab because that would be high for a regular cab. I'm sorry but there are not very many Duramax Diesels left on the market. $35,000 to $37,000 sounds about right for an LS model with all these GM Employee discounts that there is right now.

Traitor! 

[big-daddy]

yunts, do they make a crew cab diesel with a short box?

Yes but you may have a hard time finding one because most of them got sold the first month of GM Emplyee pricing for everyone. That is actually the most popular one out there. What did you get a price on.

[big-daddy]

reg cab

[yunt2ride]

reg cab

$35000 for a regular cab 4wd is about the retail after rebates, depending on options. I can check that out tomorrow to be sure.

[big-daddy]

236,000 Miles?  That is amazing......and it will probably run for another 100,000 easy......

yunts, just a trailer hitch and skid plates for options

well you should definitely get the tow package not just the hitch.
you need the transmission cooler along with the prewired harness for the trailer lights and electric brakes.  depending on hte load you may also want the lower gear ratio on the diff.

My brother's first car was a '86 Honda civic hatch back or something and he brought it over to my grandpa's house to do some work to it; now my grandpa fought in one of the wars and hates anything jap, all he does it work on vehicles and watched the history channel claming "we should've nuked 'em all" you know very stubborn old man well he's got a picture of Henry Ford hanging in his garage and as soon as my brother pulled in the the drive he frantically threw a cloth over Henry's eyes and told my brother he couldn't work on the car at his house because Henry would know that jap piece of crap was at his house. 
Yeah granps isn't so bad anymore he eventually let my brother work on his car there but ol Henry had to stay covered the whole time.

The heavy duty power package comes with the Duramax and Allison trans. So you get all the coolers and alt.

Big Daddy, Gery knows if you use a Chevy it will break down and he will have a free truck   

[big-daddy]

as they say -dont look a gifted horse in the mouth.

besides i'd rather have a broken chevy than a running ford.
its still worth more.
