Yep, I didn't take anything as attacking 
Just wanted to clarify somethings.
Sean loves his truck, and it is great for him. I don't think it would work for me. Steve and Joe and I love our trucks, because they are designed for us individually. It is great that you are looking around to see what design/style fits you the best.
Sean's truck seems faster and smoother than most kbooms I've seen, and for its size a really good chart and solidly built (more robust). For me, there is 4 disadvantages for his design. 1) Less bed space due to boom, and definitely no dumping bed. 2) He only has one chart. He can't remove his fly jib and then lift more weight. 6,600 is his max no matter what. 3).He has one less knuckle. But I'm not sure if this is a big disadvantage. 4) Most regular kbooms can flex back up some...kida like a U. Which can allow you to go under wires and back up. His boom can't do that.
