    Actually, Since its a left over 03 model and its a stickshift (Hard to sell around here) I got it pretty reasonably for what it is. A little over $25. The idea is to do a few payments on it, and then when we sell one of the other trucks, plop that down on it and then switch it over to our Bank's financing so it'll have a better interest rate.

    The truck is a plain as it can be option wise. Roll down windows, manual locks, manual mirrors, tape player, vinyl seats, ect. Not loaded by anymeans. I still really like it to. Alot more power then my dads old 94 Ford with the 7.3L Diesel I was driving. Its a little strange driving a 6spd though, I still gotta get use to it. My dad and I put abou a 100 miles on it today, runs like a top and the sound from that Cummins is awesome.

    I do, for sure, Have a ticket to Haspin now! Next thing is getting the 500X finished.

    Yeah I got one of those little Adapter do-hicky thinga-muh-bobs that hooks up to the portable CD player, and it goes in the tape deck. I'll have to try that and see how it does. Seems to have a good system from what I've heard over the radio.

    nice truck bill, my friend just got something similar to that (his dad had a mine well callopse on him and he got 2.3 million dollars) ........ definatly nice trucks, i think you will be happy with the stock sound system, me and my friend allready did one of those hookup do-hicky-thinga-ma-bobs for the portable cd player,, and it does sound really good for a stock system.
    Give me no lip and I tell you no lie.

    Damn you, I wish I could afford any diesel truck. Gas guzzling 80's Dodges don't cut it!!! Good luck with it, Those things haul arse too for a truck. I'm glad to see they have the single rear wheel option on the 1 tons.
