OK, the wife's making me get a new truck ...

Jsimpson,
Good luck with the new truck. When did they tell you it would be in? I'd be anxious to hear your impressions of both the engine and transmission.

Matt, I'm negotiating with dealsers now. I test drove a 4WD 3'4 ton. The transmission is fantastic - feels like a stick shift in lower gears, no free-wheeling. The engine is STRONG, but not silent. Quieter than other diesels, but still a diesel. When I figured I was at 70 and hit the cruise button, I looked down and was doing 90!
