Lol nope in another 4 years I will be looking again but not now, plus it was black (sorry John) been there done that and don't want another black truck. Hail damage on my truck itself is on the roof and you really have to look hard to see the two dings. Now my tonneau cover is another story. :(

Rob, when Mike and I say 4 years it is real life years, now when you say 4 years that is calculated in Dog life years =)) =)) =))

Hey George I have to defend Rob here! He is getting out and enjoying his money. He may not have a new rig or tow vehicle but he is out there camping alot not just looking at the truck and trailer in the driveway. :d :lol:

I don't need to drive four days to enjoy four days of camping.

John check your mileage going to the dealer then coming home. Reset your ave mpg. Mine has gone up a lot (don't know why) after the flash on a road i travel every day i use to get 13 now 17mpg. I went and topped off the tanks yesterday to hand calc and it was true. Maybe they are setting us up to start injecting the dpf chamber to heat it up a little to fix the early regen. :shock:

Just surprised is all Mike. I've had the pleasure of knowing you and Susanna for nearly 6 years now and you're on your third truck and second trailer since I've known you guys.

lol up until I retired I had to buy a truck every other year for tax write offs since I was self employed. But your right have had a couple two trucks and two trailers since then but love both and will keep them for a long time, have to. But I'm not one that likes to go over 100k with them or past the 5 year warranty. To darn expensive to fix these trucks anymore plus I like new toys :d

Well time to load up and hit the road for the weekend. :bounce:
