I don't think anyone has mentioned you can work on your car inside too.
I'll never forget the cam swap we did at Mid Ohio in 2002. I have an
18' Haulmark with the slanted nose. I believe the slant nose helps with
the gas mileage, but unfortunately they no longer offer it. I used to
get about 9mpg with my 2000 Expedition. I always wanted a diesel, but I
didn't want to go to a 3/4 or 1 ton truck. Unfortunately, no US maker
puts a diesel in anything smaller, but the Germans do. I replaced it
with a BMW X5 3.0 TDI which pulls stronger and gets 50% better
mileage. Ok, so it was a little pricey. As Scott said, it needs an
anti-sway device.
