[LWJ]

I have to concur with what other folks have said.

I picked up a 91 R2500 for $850. A/C didn't work so I got it all replaced (not the evaporator) for $900.

I read about the 4l60e being kind of a weak link so I bought the 3/4 ton with a 480le. No problems yet.

I wish I had the Vortec. I have a 350 with the simple fuel injection. Too early to remember what it is called. It works ok. I get about 15 on a highway - but I try not to check it as my math could be suspect and I might be a little off!

In my life, I have owned a 73 Blazer, 80 and 86 250, 91 landcruiser and this Sub. The Sub is so far ahead of the other rigs I can't begin to tell. It has an overdrive, you can sleep covered in the back, my whole family, large dog, and weeks worth of camping gear go in.

I really like the beef of the 3/4 ton. Mine has a solid axle, which some wheelers prefer. It does beat the hell out of you on the road. If I were to do it again, I would go independent front with a vortec or diesel.

This will be the biggest bang for buck you have ever experienced in a vehicle. Mine isn't super pretty but we have a forecast for snow today. What do you think I will be driving? My 911? Nope.

Have a good day,
Larry
