Yes and I like it a lot.
Last year drove it up to Albany new York and the ride is so much better than the ud.

How many miles, richard, that's the biggest test.
I looked at the LCF, I didn't like that it had less headroom than the Isuzu so getting in and out was not as easy, but the interior was nicer.
How much has it cost you to run.

I am 6-2 and fit just fine, will say it has more of a cockpit feeling in the drivers seat than the other trucks.

I'd have to check miles but we don't put many miles on any of our boxes. They are "as needed" vehicles, not used everyday unless an emergency or special need asrises.
If it costs more its simply due to diesel vs gas, the diesels generally cost us more in maintenance and repair.

Is 275 hp enough power in a V6 to haul all of your stuff around?
I saw plenty of nice used box trucks on the penske website with 50-100k miles for 12-18k. The gmc had 6.0L 320 hp engines and the Fords were 255 hp.
That is a really nice looking truck though.

We can haul 60-pieces of drying equipment and it has plenty of power. It's the first choice when the guys go out monitoring jobs.

I looked at these when they came out and really liked them until I did a little research and found out the motor is a 6.0 with two cylinders less, otherwise the same motor. That motor is the worlds biggest pile of shit hence why its no longer around. Something else to consider is the trucks are not made anymore....Why?
