SWMBO had ruled out Merkun iron, according to Clay. So it'd have to be a toada tundra: Much less "truck" for much more money. Otherwise, the heavy half or 3/4 ton peekup, ta hoe or suburban hoe types are good choices. Although the F250 has AK cred. tyee165 via Mercedes

The W220 was not bottom fed. That really sealed the fate of the Star Cars in her mind. NO Benz is good in her eyes. The w124 was too “snooty” for her, and repair costs on that 15 year old car were not “fiscally responsible”. My vote would be to put a low miles 617 in the SD at less than one
