good for you that you don't care about making money, cause looking cool so important right, if I wanted to drive around and be cool I have plenty of 2 and 4 wheeled toys at home to do that, a truck is not a status symbol for me.
since you like losing money and looking cool, I have a 2008 W900 with 10 grand worth of custom stainless on it you can buy, I don't like losing money and this truck can't seem to make any money for me and I am trying to sell it to some poor sucker like you

sure you can make money with a non fuel efficient truck, but you can make more money with something that gets decent fuel milage, if I can save $500 a week in fuel I would be stupid not to take the fuel efficent truck. I would rather have money in my bank account than worry about if I am looking cool to the other drivers out there. 8 mpg over 5 mg makes a big difference, my Freightshaker brings in more money every week than my W900 doing the same amount of miles with the exact same engines, so don't tell me that aerodynamics doesn't make a difference,
You guys are so set in your old ways and you just want to find any reason to justify keeping your so called cool, out dated long nosed trucks when there is so much better technology out there now. Last edited by Shawnee; 12-25-2009 at 10:53 AM. |
