>Thanks for all the replies folks. I guess more information is needed to make an accurate determination. My Rampside is an automatic transmission (the best). It has a 95HP 1965 car engine. I rarely load it down with much weight. I rarely drive it in hills though I live in the mountains. Again, thanks to all.
