    Translation: Your wife made you type the response above. :)

    I'd like to bring this up:

    1. No. Its my truck and My Choice.
    2. I'm not pussy whipped.
    3. The soldiers in Afghanistan didn't get to choose either.
    4. I did my 20+ years in the military.

    Cuz DC owners have full growed friends & gear to haul and still have a long bed for external stuff.
    Cuz it looks better and is more practical to boot.
    Cuz some of us have done the access cab thing and learned from it.
    Cuz I want to, can, and Momma had no say in the matter.
    Cuz the subject was sufficient to start a TW thread. What were you thinking?
    If youns guys like it cramped, why buy an AC and not an RC ?

    Finally & foremost : How interesting would life be if everyone on this site had a super white AC SB fully decked out with money pit $$, then turned around and threw boulders at his/her pride & joy ?

    Amen! :D

    Lots of good reasons on here for picking the type of truck. But a truck is like a tool, everybody chooses the one that fits thier needs.

    I wanted a DC but I found a great deal on an AC that I felt good about. Kids are a few years off, but I'll eventually trade up to a DC when little Jux comes along.

    Obviously I didn't read it closely before I came out swinging... my bad. :p


    Jimmy, we really think you're bitter because the DC rigs appear more masculine than yours. :D J/k
