I voted for Chevy Gas, but no new trucks.  My 85 3/4 ton with a big block and overdrive is my ultimate pullin' truck.  :D

Yeah, when it comes to manual overdrives for 3/4 and 1 ton pickups they can't really be beat.  Cheavy and Dodge formed New Venture to produce them in the late 80's.  They are all cast iron, have a granny first (my brothers is the GM ratio, which is 5.88:1, I think), and have a 75% overdrive.

Here's the cool part.  Since it's a GM tranny, I wont need any adapters (maybe a new bellhousing, but I've been told mine will work).  :good

Stick with Chevy...it's #1 :good  :D
The roofer doing my re-roof on my house right now has a 3/4T Chevy PU and had 2 Full Pallets of Composition shingles in his truck yesterday.  1 pallet is very heavy, but 2 in a pickup is unbelieveable! :good   I was astounded by the payload capacity of the truck.  Next one I buy will be a 3/4T Chevy :good
