V8 AWD Questions
GOOD CHOICE Congrats!!! It's nice to hear you got the E/B if you like yours as much as I do mine you won't miss the 92. When I bought mine I traded in a 91 Navajo and the ride and power of the Navajo is just no match for the E/B.... Good luck with the new truck...........Ron- Ron Cruz
