I really like the 34 Party Cat, Powerboat mag had a test on it, Teague and Tomlinson liked it too, ran almost 90 with 525s and handled like it was on rails. Biga$$ deck boat lol.

You running the Spartan 310 tune? Those trucks simply SCREAM with that tune and a DPF delete....

On a more personal note, Debbie Christiansen has done a tremendous job of keeping Advantage Boats in operation after the deaths of Harry and Jeff. I have great respect and admiration for her.

Buddy has an 08 450 dually gets about 12 towing. I mean heres the thing all the different diesels will have some advantages and disadvantages. I can tell you out of the big three they will ALL suck fuel specially if your towing.

Yes she has, that story is crazy. When I had first heard it. I was like WTF! Who in the hell in their right mind could ever imagine doing something like that. Hard enough to loose your spouse... then to loose your son. WOW!! I think I would have wanted to throw in the towel. She defiantly is a strong woman to be able to have gone thru what she has. Plus while going thru it having to keep the business running. I to have alot of respect for her,

I would recomend against this truck. I get 7.5 mpg towing and 11 not. 2008 F-450 that has been through 3 radiators and a motor. Has left me stranded on the side of the road for all of these breakdowns. There is a thread about this truck if you do a search (26+pages).
