Jeremiah,
Thanks for posting that great video. When you get that K-30 please post photos. They are great trucks. I have a '78 GMC Sierra Classic C-35 one ton SRW regular cab truck that I love dearly. Runs and drives like new with the 454/TH400 and 4.10 rear gear. Mine is the California version with 250 horsepower and 395 ft. lbs. of torque. Catalyst exempt due to it's 9,000 GVW rating. Tows my car hauler with car (around 6,500 ish pounds) like it is not even back there. Does 65 up any hill without a struggle. Seems to tow every bit as well as my 2004 V-10 SD 4x4 in my signature. Both get about the same mileage when towing the same load, but the Ford gets 1 or 2 mpg better highway fuel mileage when empty and not towing. GMC does have a 700 lb. lighter curb weight than my F-250 though.
