I agree.

I'd much rather have a well-tuned light engine (handling), then some heavy lump.

Lol, have to agree here too. I've been overtaken by a few tractor units before now....going uphill.

I once got a ride in a Volvo truck, not sure what it was, but by God, could that thing SHIFT! An auto box really helps when you're stirring 20+gears! Grin
