Good Bye Ol Friend.

It is bittersweet when you come to the conclusion that it is time for a new pickup. My 99 Dodge has been a good truck for 283,000 miles but it is just time to get a new ride.

My mission has changed and I no longer need the pulling power of the CTD. I test drove the 2010 CTD but I nearly lost the fillings in my teeth! Rough riding does not begin to describe how horrible the ride is. My '99 rides ten times better than today's 2500.

I test drove Ford, Toyota & Dodge and the 1/2 ton Dodge is hands down the best truck on the market today, IMHO. The ride is incredible, interior flawless, looks great, and I love the Rambox!

Now what color do I get?

Angie has the inferno red, I love that color. The electric blue is really sharp, too.

How you doin, buddy?

I'm doing good! Thanks! I'm looking forward to my new ride! Gonna miss the diesel, but the new ones just are not right for me.

I'm thinking silver! It hides water spots!

Any color you want if you're paying cash. Keep your current one if you can't or don't want to write a check.
