I have a '98 FG. I love the truck, I have had it for 5 years. The first 4 years I towed my Bandit 200XP chipper up and down steep mountain roads. This year I purchased a second chip truck & the Mitsy tows the log trailer or my 3830 Kobota w/ winch. The frame is kind of rusty, I will likley trade it in next year for a newer model. My favorite points are the engine break, the turning radis & visability when backing up, engine torque, and 4WD. It has been very reliable 55,000 miles.
