That v6 will leave me 4.6 v8 though I promise.

The only thing i like about my v6 is they're very reliable. If it was in something with a longer wheelbase i wouldnt complain (as much). But ill be happy when i get another 5.7 vortec

You may have seen it around since your in the Holmwood/Biglake area. I live south of Lake Charles, hunt south of Holmwood and fish Big Lake in the fall, we also jug for catfish in the Gibbstown area of the intercoastal.

Yea, it's an 18' Allweld with a 50hp tiller steer, great for chasing trout and running to the weir to castnet for shrimp.
