i think i'm seriously leaning towards the v10 right now. i'm not gonna be towing up rediculous hills with this truck and if i did decide to say, enter a mud bog, i think a turbo'd v10 would do pretty well. i love diesel, too. i have a 1960 kenworth i'm restoring, though, so i think i'll have plenty of diesel in my future anyway.. lol that one probably won't be done til i'm 50 (i'm 21 now)
