I knew it! I saw your sig in off topic and was confused. I thought it was a noob because I had never seen the sig before, but then it was your screen name, man you got to stop confusing me. Nice truck, get a decent deal on it?

Lol, yeah found it for 14.995. Suprisingly gave me 6,500 for my truck (99 w/ 130k miles). So far im loving it. Got the exhaust done already with a magnaflow muffler and magnaflow tips. Plan on gettin the black headlights for it and then spray tinting the taillights.

Nice. Did you hafto bargain for the 6.5k or was that there first offer? Heh, they gave my dad 500 for a 94 s10 with 175,000 miles, it was a POS though, loosing tranny and engine was slowly dying.

They first offered me 6 and i bargained to get more because i just had the entire rear end rebuilt with posi less than 2 months ago(if i known i was trading it in i wouldnt have done that, lol) So they said 6.5 was the most they would go. I thought it was decent because i havent had any major problems IE was still on the first tranny.

Good deal, congrats! You had the 5.9 in your old truck, right? How does the HEMI compare?

Also, was your old truck 4wd? I see you're in MN, land of snow....

imtheoneandonlyD · #7 10-11-2005, 09:48 PM

hemi obviously has a ton more power. Even with the mods i had on my 5.9 the hemi is amazing. The 99 was 4x4 as well as the hemi. I dont think i could live in MN driving a truck without four wheel drive.

fredjacksonsan · #8 10-12-2005, 07:06 AM

HEMI. Sweeeeet. That's kinda what I figured (more power, 4wd). I know that BleedDodge has a 2wd, and he's a ways up in Canada....

Enjoy!

Thanks man, the 4w also helps when i like to get dirty in the summer time after rain storms.

Congrats on the new truck!!! If I could afford the truck and gas I'd have one too.

imtheoneandonlyD · #11 10-12-2005, 11:25 PM

Thanks andy, has isnt that bad. Mostly im doing city driving and so far im gettin between 11 and 11.5 MPG. Its got a 23 gal tank, well im assuming cause it was on about a quarter and took 17 gallons to fill. Generally i fill up 2 maaaybe 3 times a week so its not to bad.

fredjacksonsan · #12 10-13-2005, 06:39 AM

Damn, 2-3 times a week? That's a lot of driving.

imtheoneandonlyD · #13 10-15-2005, 12:11 AM

Yeah, i do alot of driving. But gas isnt killing me, generall its not a full tank fill up each time. I fill the full tank maybe once a week. Other than that its just putting 20 bucks in at a time.

fredjacksonsan · #14 10-15-2005, 10:32 AM

Check...I prefer not to stop for gas unless I have to, so fill up all the way. Great fun, putting in $70.00....

imtheoneandonlyD · #15 10-15-2005, 11:34 AM

I think last time i filled up it was 53.00 to fill up from a quarter.
