I think the smaller one is better, although the chick on the truck is pretty good looking too. Cobalt Blue is the best color of tib IMO. Do you have blue corner lights or is it an optical illusion in pic 2?

They do look blue like the car. I've never seen that. It's really good looking. Maybe if my LEDs ever die I'll change to those.

Place I used to work at.. and still do as a "casual" has four truck..a 12' Mitsu, a 24' GMC (really an izuzu) a 24' Ford, and a 26' food.. both of the fords use the "brazilian" engine which is a beast to start with their air starter (compressed air turns the engine over instead of an electric starter)

The beauty of big cab-overs (as opposed to your truck) is the believable views you get out the windshield. There is literally nothing between you and road but glass, the dash, and the steering wheel.

You can hustle those truck too, once you get them up to speed (zero to 60 in 30 seconds, anybody?) they handle a lot better than anything that big has a right to.. and I have gotten everyone of them up onto three (actually 4) wheels with one of the rear dualies up off of the ground in hard cornering. An interesting sensation to say the least.

Yeah, that 20' Isuzu surprised the hell out of me but it won't go any faster than 81mph downhill with a tailwind.
