In know you guys hate dumb questions, but I'm looking at my first deuce in 3 weeks or so... is it worth holding out for the LDS engine, or possibly paying more to get one? Is the extra 40hp/longevity a deal maker or breaker? (My price range is $3000-$4000, and I know that won't get me a winch.)
FWIW I am an ASE cert parts tech, licensed mechanic, and ME major who used to sling parts at a Freightliner dealership. I'm going to use her for some work, some projects, and a whole lot of fun... but I don't think I'll be driving more than an hour in any direction with her.
Thanks for all the information you all share, I never would have thought this a possibility without you guys. I'm especially interested in the HEMTT wheel conversions and the overdrive gear upgrade, and have been watching those threads with interest.
