May not be getting a Ram
Well guys, you might be upset with me. I may or may not be getting a new Dodge Ram. My dad's cousin owns a rebuild shop and has a 2000 Ford F-150 V8 Super Cab with about 50000 miles and he's offered it to me for $9000. He's got a 2001 Ram extended cab almost exactly like the 1997 I had, but it's still in the body shop and half apart and I really can't wait for them to get it done, and I don't know how much he'll want for it until it's done. But hey, a Chevy guy that works down there told me that the Ford was the best pick-up he's ever driven. It runs great and it looks good. The guy that owned it before hit a deer, and they said the only thing it did was busted the bumper, grill, windshield and bent the hood. They said the guy drove it home. I think it's a damned good deal.

Re: May not be getting a Ram
Yea this one seems to be pretty good. The insurance company is only wanting to give me about 7600 bucks for my truck, which is about all it's worth. It had a rebuilt title and it wasn't in PERFECT condition. I did, however, find a 1997 Ram ext cab 4X4 very similar to mine for $7100. It has 10000 miles less than what mine had on it. I may look into it.

Re: May not be getting a Ram
...and now the mental anguish begins...making the decision. Time for that +/- sheet listing the attributes of both trucks. Good luck with your decision.
Hey, weren't you going to post some pics of the dearly departed? |

Re: May not be getting a Ram
Sorry for not getting on here in a bit. I bought that truck today. The 2000 Ford F-150. It's nice. Nicer than my Dodge actually. I hate to say that. I haven't gotten my pictures scanned yet, but I hope to have it done shortly. I'll also try and get pics of the new Ford on here too so you all can see it.

Re: May not be getting a Ram
I'm enjoying the Ford. Not as much as the Ram, but then again, I've only had it for 3 days. I actually went up and saw my poor wrecked truck today at the towing company. I had to get a couple more things off it that I couldn't get using a cavalier. I'm going to miss that truck. But like you said, the Ford is 4 years newer. And it's nicer than my dodge because... yea, my dodge is wrecked. Although the Ford does have a limited slip diff, which I am loving. I think I'll get by with it.
