I went and looked at this truck, and for the price, I don't see the point. It costs darned near as much as an awfully nice brand new class 8, and is not nearly as capable. The motor is too small (torque being the really important issue here) and this is spec'd with the auto tranny. At least get a 10 speed auto-shift, and 1200+ foot pounds of torque, unless you want to fall on your face everytime you see a hill.
