MG and Badmember, please don't misunderstand me or think that I'm bad mouthing them, I'm not and wasn't. I did compliment the old ones - really could take a beating and were made to. However, the new ones are definately out of my price range, and again, the 8' beds on my pickups are often too small as it is to do the job. Just a fact is all. Even if I could afford one (in addition to my work pickups), it just wouldn't be practical unless I wanted to pull a trailer all the time to haul what needs hauled. As for the new ones, well, I'm sure are loaded with plastics and leathers like the upper scale domestics (Escalades, Expeditions, H2's, etc) so that those who can afford them and buy them pass me on the expressways doing a hundred like sports cars, and look chic while doing so - and good for them, spend the money, keep the economy going. For my needs, just not practical, but then again, neither are Blazers or Suburbans, even when they were "real utility vehicals", long before they became "cutesee sportee utilitee veehicals".
