Re:Help me resist the '03 !!

Kinda contradictory title and subject. Sure you need help in resisting? Or help in sharpening your pencil to rob Peter to pay Paul?<br>You are DOOMED!!!!!! Enjoy your 2003 Dodge. Let us know when you pick it up. ;D

Yo Mexstan,<br>You're right I have it worked out all but selling my Goldwing! Just can't make myself sell the bike and it's half the cost of a new truck, so I suppose I'll stick to the 95 for now and keep the bike! Tony

Maybe this will help you &quot;resist&quot;. Just think of this as your driveway: Temptation<br> <br><br>(Hope you don't mind DF5152)

Re:Help me resist the '03 !!

tmiller24, <br><br>If you have a perfectly good running Ram now, that you have dumped a fair chunk of $$$ into (that you won't get back), why put yourself in the position where you are basically back to square one, and have to start all over with technology that you are not familiar with?<br><br>New truck, $37,000<br><br>Power $ 1,500<br>More power $ 1,500<br>Tranny $ 1,000 - $5,000<br>Correcting some DC <br>design flaws $1,500<br><br>Do you have an extra $10k laying around for down payment and power mods (that you can't finance)?<br><br>I am all for upgrading, but it is one or the other. You could sell off your current truck privately, then go new now, or wait another year for the price to come down (after someone else has already taken the 15% depreciation) and get a low mileage used one. <br><br>5-7 more years of payments.........<br><br>Did I help any?<br>

Sticks, you hit the bullseye. Don't forget the warranty trap, either.

I say if you want the truck buy it. You only live once. You can tell your wife this is the last truck you will buy. 8)
