DODGE uses a completely different trans now than your 99 did, and they have proven VERY reliable(probably more so than some of DODGES manuals in there gassers). Nice truck though, now get some pics of it hooked to the boat earning it's keep.

Phat.. Yes it was a quad cab 2500. It had the funky back doors that could only open after the front doors were opened. Ferm.. I enjoy driving a stick shift. Since I took my VW off the road for a while I figured this is the next best thing.For piece of mind I extended the bumper to bumper warranty to 78,000 miles. It will start earning its keep this week. I have several boats to launch in the next 2 weeks and on May 1 I have to haul one up to Canada.

not really much from that storm. But we got a ton of work from all them snow storms. I've just been busy the past few weeks. Finding this truck being one and finding a new place to live being another. My lease is up soon and we wanted to find something a little cheaper to rent. This weekend I will be moving. After that things should settle down just in time for work to really get crazy.
