I know the head purchasing guy at a local company in Detroit that just leased one of these Crown Lp trucks. I'd say it looks about like any other LP truck that any other manufacturer has to offer. Nothing too special. Not cheap but certainly not impressive. This company pays over $350 a month for a lease, I know Bell Toyota sells the comparable Toyota for less than that so I asked why they got the Crown and the response was "it's got a great John Deere Engine". Im not sure I'd be the Guinea Pig for a new lift because it has a John Deere engine, but I can say that they beat the **** out of the truck and after 4 months it seems to be working well.
