Good luck with the Ford - you'll need it.

Sorry things didn't work out between you and the 1st gen.

The Fords are......OK. I've logged a bunch of miles on Fords from 89 to '02's. They just never "stirred" me at all. I couldn't have cared less about a diesel. Then,by chance, I get this Dodge......ya'll know the story.

It is sad that you sold your Dodge. You put a lot of time in the old girl and alot of effort. Too bad it didn't work out. Now, how about a good second gen. There are a few out there.

I think he's already got a DMax in the family he drives. Someone got a deal though, good lookin truck just needing some good work done to it, and a spare engine to boot.

I had a 97 PSD. Great truck. But I never could love it. The various Dodges I have owned on the other hand...
