That's a 40' DV ? I'm looking at the tandem axle as, on paper, the triple is a lot heavier and has a bigger payload capacity than I'd ever see me needing.

I still kinda like the Ford - but if it doesn't have the reliability, or if they fuel economy really starts to come into play then 'the numbers' will dictate over the badge on the hood.

I'd be looking at vehicles ~3 years and older. Driving an estimated 15k a year.
