Fred, about D'Ambrosio's . So far, my experience with them has been excellent, so has Kerry's. She made her first service appointment for her new Intrepid a couple weeks ago, and she was in and out, smooth as silk. Whenever I call, they are always courteous and direct me whereever.

I think you should get your truck looked at, but, I suspect, coming from what you and I came from (PSDs) we're a little paranoid! As my truck is due in in a couple weeks, these are things I will keep in mind. Hopefully, it will be here in time for our meet on 3/20, and you can drive mine, to see if it is different.

Believe me, with the ONGOING issues with my Ford (HPOP line is still not fixed - still a very slow drip drip drip which I'm sure is just a matter of time before it goes again), any issues with the new Dodges are minor. My '97 (granted, it was a V10) was a VERY reliale, well built vehicle. I'm looking forward to being Mopar truck man again.

Hey Scott,

Don't get me wrong, I love the truck!! This is proved by all of the UPS and Fedex boxes piling up in the garage.

Kelderman air suspension is here!!!! I think I will attack that tonight.

I guess I'm just looking to make sure what I am hearing and seeing are normal, and won't adversly affect the truck in the long haul. I guess I'm a little suspicous of any problem after dealing with the Ford issues.

And yes, I can't wait till the 20th to see all the trucks and ask lots of questions!! I will call D'ambrosio again and see if they respond.

dwhite,
Unloaded it started out at 13, now I'm getting 14.5 to 15 mpg mixed hyway/rural.

Also, thanks for the pointer on the cab smell. I'll let you know if anything changes with the re-flash.

Fred
