Default New Truck

Bought a new truck two days ago, 2005 Durango Limited. Found it at a Saturn Dealer in Eatontown got a pretty good deal. Should go well with the trailer I am planning to pick up next month. I just have to wait until I get the towing gear installed on the truck. Guys I am buying the trailer from are using it for Beaverun and I will be taking it from them afterwards.
Ken

Too cool.

I'll bring the chess set for the quiet time between track sessions.

Thanks fellas. I thought it over before buying this one and since I am 4 miles from work, it's not so bad. Road trips will really cost, but that's usually once a month with a buddy paying half.

No HEMI. Would have taken too long to locate one in as nice condition with low mileage. All the Hemi's I saw had much higher mileage for the age of the truck.
Mine has the 4.7L Magnum motor. I would have liked the HEMI though. I was a bit surprised when the insurance company said the cost for insurance would have been the same with either engine.

DON'T TAKE 30 MINUTES TO GET YOUR BIKE OFF THE TRAILER!!!

News from my recent vacation:

At about 9am, Mary and I are asleep in bed (or atleast trying to) when this horrible Harley noise comes through the window. After ten minutes, I'm irritable, and I look out the window - it sounded like a crappy lawn mower at first. I thought maybe I needed to throw rocks on the lawn.

Anyway, it turns out the tool next door was taking his Hardley off the trailer. This didn't go well for him. It took him 30 minutes every time. I say every time, but it never moved. THE ENTIRE WEEK.

"I bought a $30k Hardley! Isn't it pretty and loud?!?!"

Jackass.

Anyway, congrats on the truck and trailer.

Be sure the drivetrain warranty is good to go, those models are notorious for eating up gears in the rear transfer case from towing, good luck with it.
