New Dodge
[sm=pcwhack.gif]
Hey I'm Dustin from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. I just bought my first "New" vehicle. Traded in my '99 Civic w/ 201k miles for a '04 Dodge regular cab. Has the 3.9 and a 5 speed. I have been looking for a vehicle for probably 6 months or more when I came across this hell of a deal. Plus my civic was need a tranny. It is about as basic as a truck can get. Manual windows and locks, rubber floors, but hey it has cruise and A/C so I can't complain too much. I have added a tool box and my CD player. Prolly going to look into some window tint and brush guard for it soon. Perhaps some nicer wheels as well. No engine mods planned. So far everything is great. Gonna take it on it's first road trip (for me anyway). Not too far about 80 miles one way to Okemah Oklahoma for Thanksgiving Dinner. You guys have lots of good information out there, but hopefully I won't have to use much of it, with any luck anyways.
Thanks Y'all

RE: New Dodge
Well I have decided that this truck isn't too bad. It doesn't have much get up and go on the highway w/o downshifting. 2 tanks a fuel I have averaged 15.9 on both tanks with a lot of city driving. I graduate from college in a year and will probably upgrade shortly after getting my license. Thanks again folks for all the great ideas!!!
