In an effort to do our little bit to get the economy going we bought a new
truck today.

The old one lasted 18++ years, 276,585 miles and is actually still going
strong although it's well past beat up and ugly

The new one is a Dodge 4 door short bed 4X4 with the Cummins diesel, it
has truly awesome power and I can't wait to hook up my trailer and head
over the pass.

However,

I feel very poor now :-(


Nice!

I'm guessing you got an amazing deal given the economic situation? They have
some great offerings in the area, but I can't get my bride on board for a
new one although my '04 still purrs like a kitten.

As RD mentioned, the chips/programmers are really nice and will add major hp
and additional fuel economy. With the programmers (like Bullydog) you can
really dial these motors. The only concern would be the potential of voiding
the warranty.

Congrats,
