But given the two choices, I'd opt for the Magnum.Some quick comments/opinions:a) GM's entire truck line is ancient, tiresome, and awful.b) Ford's new F150 is awesome.c) Ford's Ranger needs an overhaul (with a V-8).d) The best looking truck in showrooms today is the Ram.e) The best performance truck in showrooms today is the SRT-10.A prediction: SUVs will gradually turn back into AWD station wagons.

As much as I would love to buy a new Gen 2, its gonna have to wait. I am hoping to have a good job by august though so maybe one of these days I will get one. The sad thing though is that I have driven more 2nd gens than 1st gens and I own a 1st gen, lol. They all drive good as far as i am concerned. Erik D. '94 white lightning
