Question 1997- 42' vs 2000- 42'

Any advice in regards to pros and cons between these two years.Both have big power and dry sump # 6's.I'm trying to close this deal before years end but torn between the two.Dollars are very close to each other.Open for suggestions.

I prefer the 1997 bottom over the 2000.

What up with this - are you making a move/trading ?? IMO newer is always better.

Cool Re: 1997- 42' vs 2000- 42'

Was wondering Random how long it would take before you posted, anyway will be trading the hustler plus some cabbage.Need to break the 100 mark. Hustler is just to loose at anything above 90 with the family on board. Having a hard time deciding between the two.Keep a lid on this, don't want the locals to know.
