Mrs.C is making this difficult. it's her 'Three choices are not enough' thing that makes large purchases so annoying.

Her reasoning against the three trucks I'm looking at, and bear in mind that she will rarely drive any of them; the Ford is white. Quote, "There are too many white trucks in our subdivision". There isn't, but the white ones stand out. The plow isn't a big deal to her but I'd just as soon not have it.
The 2500 is 2WD and has the 5th wheel hitch in the bed. If we remove the hitch,"There's holes in the bed". Holes that can be plugged. "What if it snows?" Our Chevy is the first 4wd truck we've owned. I managed 40 years without it.
The only thing she has against the 1500 is that it looks like Suburban.

So, in her fashion, she's looking at a bunch of other dealerships at other trucks and pointing them out to me. And I'm playing her game with dislikes.

I haven't told her we could probably have the Chevy regeared with something like a 3.73 instead of the 3.42 that's in there and have the 'puter reprogrammed.

This may take a while.
