Question EC or RC??

Well... things happened I will be getting a ~00 again... I have been kinda jonesin for an EC for the space and just something a little different.. However I will be building this back to my old one... What do you guys think? is the extra space really that worth it or should I go on with building the clone?

As much fun as a RC can be (think of my power in a 700lb lighter truck) the added space is too attractive.

After owning a regualr cab for years and years, I was fond of the added power from the weight diffrence. But now as I have aged somewhat and purchased a Crew Cab, I can say, as a daily driver, I will NEVER own an small truck again. The added space is way to delightful.

The space is very nice. But i went back to a single cab because with my extended cab i filled it up with so much more crap it was useless.

HaHa.......LOL

That is only true if you don't empty it out once in a while. Keep on top of it and it is really not a problem.

I really like my CC even if it is heavy as heck.

I appreciate it guys. I've got quite a few EC's Im gonna go look at, and a couple RC's. depends on the price I can find one for, found one low mile 5.3 with 46k, that will be getting a turbo instead of the 6.0

What are you looking for in an EC? Just thinking ahead for when I'm ready to get rid of mine....
