Dodge Country

Hi All!

I just got back from Western Kentucky. I went to Paducah and Owenboro traveling from the Smithland Dam to the Cannelton Dam on the Ohio River.

I have never seen so many Dodge Trucks. That is DODGE COUNTRY! WOW!

The only FERD I saw was a brand new SuperDuty Dullie in a wreck near Paducah. He was off a dry road in a huge ditch with the truck half on a driveway and half off almost on its side. Got to see the bottom of the truck real well.

That had to be a $65000 truck. I have no idea how he wrecked it.

There was some GM products but by far there was Dodge trucks everywhere.

Anyway, if anyone is on this forum form Western KY.........congratulations!

Mike

The Big Island of Hawaii is Dodge country, too. I was pleasantly surprised to see so many cruising the island there.

If you want to see ford country come here to the bay area. Bunch of short guys driving super dutys with 10 plus inches of lift all powdercoated sitting on at LEAST 20s. I think its funny. Made for many many kills in my old rig.

I see a ton of Dodges around here with Fords probably tied or a near second. A lot of loggers around here prefer one or the other it seems. In MT you sure do drive thru different truck territories. I see a lot of everything, but Missoula has got to be the Chevy capital of the entire state. A lot of Dodges around Kalispell area.
