I actually prefer a 2wd. If it was closer and I had the extra cash I'd take a look and possibly offer upper 3's or close to 4k if its as clean as the pics show :shrug:

Something to do with thinking the Tcase was not strong enough for the torque is what I've been told. I think even the Crew Cab 1 tons came with either 350, or Diesel.

Were they telling us that a 454 had more torque than a diesel, but not saying it outright?
