Default Sorry guys. Moving on up the food chain

The lease on my Dakota was due up, and this Ram R/T happened to be sitting in the back of the lot getting no attention, so I adopted it (and abandoned my Dakota ). So far I'm really liking it! I just need to get some miles on this thing so I can finally open it up! I felt bad driving away from my Dakota, but the velocity at which I departed soon diverted my attention

I was planning on buying out the Dakota this whole time, but I couldn't find a good rate on a used truck loan, so this ended up being the same price. The Dakota had it's share of issues anyway, so I'm kinda glad I was able to move it before they became expensive repairs (shocks, brakes, ball joints, and an exhaust leak at the manifold). If y'all still want me, I'll still be hanging around. I still love Dakotas, and wouldn't mind another one some day.

Slick - Sorry, but I can't look at that. It's Cummins!

Also to the TS, sweet looking truck. Too bad my days of regular cab trucks are gone. Now I can't go with anything less than 4 doors :-(
