In the DIY section, there are polls for what we have IN our trucks, ranging from gears, to what oil we use...... seems like a reasonable proposition to me.

First car:
1986 IROC Z28. Manymany mods...and they killed the car

Second Car:
1996 Dodge Ram 4x4 5.2 auto. The SPRUCE MOOSE. Bought it because Silverados of the same year were about 3K more expensive. This bowtie boy "settled" for a Dodge. Great truck, the tranny was not so great. From July 2003 to Jan 2009, this truck went from Ft Sill OK, to Ft Drum NY, Back to Ft sill, the all the way to California. It was buried in Cali with 175,000 on the odometer. I junked it in condition that was better than some of the trucks here. But it had a gutted cat, and I did not feel like getting arrested for selling that truck in Cali. Damn hippies.

Current Car
Look at the sig. 2001 4x4 OFF ROAD 5.9L. Bought it for 10K with a chrome brushguard and rock sliders. 42K on the odometer and STILL UNDER WARRANTY!!! Warranty paid for a new transfer case and power steering pump since I bought it in Jan 2009.

Wife's car:
Used to have a 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland HEMI with all the bells and whistles (Leather heated seats, GPS nav, Backup camera, engine block heater...). She hated it because it was too small on the inside. Now we have a 2007 Yukon 2WD 5.3L with leather interior that I haggled the dealership to install. I have to admit, it is a nicer drive than the Grand Cherokee.

First Ride: 1993 Ford Ranger XLT 2.3L 5SPD RWD w/ 30x10.50. For being a 4 banger this truck was relentless. It has taken me from Benning to Sill to Carson and back to GA (no cruise control or A/C!). The ODM was dial and it rolled over twice. I sold it last year for $1000 and it had 275,000+. Bought it for $800 as a senior in high school in 2004.

2nd Ride and Current Truck: 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4. Got this truck from a SGM in CO for $2500. SGM found out my dad had to buy new u joints and had a leaky A/C so he only sold it for $1000 (my dad and him are buddies). Had 148,000 miles on it and its first test was driving from Carson back to GA.

Wifes Ride: 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander XLS 2.4L. The family car not just because it gets better gas mileage but also that the A/C works lol.
