The good:
They will run forever.
They take little to almost no maintenance and still keep running.
With a fuel plate and a little tuning they can put out a lot of HP.
They just sip fuel. 23 MPG is not unheard of.
You will have a lot of new friends and enemies when you pull into a campground.
The bad:
They are louder than a 747 on takeoff. (both inside and out)
They are very crude trucks.
They only put out 160 HP which is sad, sad, sad. 20 to 30 MPH on steep mountains is the order of the day.
If you start putting power to them the tranny will be done. (The trannys can't handle the torque.)
People will want to fight you if you try to warm your truck up in a campground at 6 in the morning.
They rust really bad.
They have a cult following so people tend to pay a lot for them whether worth it or not.
After owning it for a few years you tend to ask people: "what did you say again? What?, What?.................."
