A few more things to think about. Do not settle for a 10 speed, been there done that and have the poor resale to show for it on my last one. No one wants a manual tranny anymore.

Unless your thinking about a condo with walk through which you are better off buying used. Go with a new truck. By the time you buy a used truck and update it, modify it for the conversion, your only maybe $20,000 shy of a new truck. Unless we are talking a decked out new FL Classic, Pete or T2000.

If your thinking about a Beaver (big money), you can definetly go with a completey decked out conversion by say Show Hauler, NRC, Trendsetter, Renegade or Haulmark for approx $200,000. Kingsley will probably set ya back a 1/4 mill or more.
