Default My new truck

Thanks to all you folks for the tunes feedback, it made the day extra special.

So now here it is while I was going to pick up some supper last night.

It appears that the stories of your failing eye sight are greatly exagerated.

No it does'nt say Dakota, it is a slightly larger truck with only 3 letters on the grill.
FWIW:
It gets better fuel economy with it's v8 than my old Dakota did with a V6.

Nice truck.

But it's going to suck when you put the first scratch on it...

No word of a lie.............it looks just like the one I helped push off the road this afternoon. Computer problem.

Congrats, Dick. Nice ride, and it's tough to beat that 'new car smell'. Now to get a bit of blood in the box, eh? Enjoy.

Now all you need is to add the winch mount, gun rack, CB antenna and then chop off the catalytic and factory muffler...straight pipe it up....and you're ready for Hunting season......

Just finished fabing up my winch mount....just in case I have to park in a DV alley (inside joke)

What happened to the post of taking it up to 150 to check rattles? Take er up to 160 and it will cut out, at least mine does. Scared me the first time thought I blew my transmission. Don't believe Tree he's a Ford guy.
