You know, I actually thought/think Karl was/is a nice guy, I just feel that he didn't live up to the reputation I had read about. His shop and mechanic have become like so many other places these days, in my experience, where complacency is acceptable.

I have actually told people to check out his shop, but I have also told them what to look for and be especially vigilant on certain matters because PC isn't.

Well, I have bought from Karl, not once, but twice. I have found him to be very good to work with, and very honest and accurate in his description of his trucks for sale. I guess there is always the possibility of a "bad" truck slipping through, but that has not been my experience, just my .02

I have had great dealings with Karl myself as well.....not in any way downplaying Berger's experience though!

Like I said, it isn't personal, I just have no tolerance anymore for sloppiness and excuses. Not trying to stir this up again, just saying.

I am happy with my truck, but will do the work on it from now on.

liked the quick fabricated functional bumpers that allow the rear indicators to be seen & easier entry to cab. :idea:

design could be improved ..though.. :roll:
