Re: Gettin aboard the Mopar train!!!!
Stinky, you made a good pick! In February I bought an 06 Dakota Quad Cab V8. It pulls my V20 just fine. Hopefully it can last as long as my 95 Ford Van which some people would have never owned. Billy Mac ;D

Re: Gettin aboard the Mopar train!!!!
Blue, thas some decent MPG on the 360.
One thing I should make yall aware of is that I am SO SICK of having no power that I dont mind spending a little more $$ on fuel. I also only have a 12 mile trip to work everyday...roundtrip. The other thing is that my Jimmy SUCKS on fuel...I am lucky to get 14 around town and the best Ive gotten on the highway is just under 20. Those 4.3s were never real efficient. I should know, I have owned like 6 of em. *::) Which engine you got in the 06 Dakota Mac?

Re: Gettin aboard the Mopar train!!!!
I was surprised what I was getting for MPG too. The truck has one of the trip/fuel computer in the overhead console it's easy to keep track of. I had a 89 K-10 6ft bed w/ 4.3L and a five speed brand new it was a horrible motor, having to go in 3rd gear towing a 17 footer over a 1000 ft hill to the lake.... I drive 31 miles one way to work but it's all highway thank god

Re: Gettin aboard the Mopar train!!!!
nice looking truck Stink's. So Stink did your mom finally give you approval to have a V8 lol. ;D Be careful with all that power little guy, I'd hate to see Poppa Willy have to come bail you out for spinning tires lol.
I drive 4 miles to work everyday round trip :P Well till i buy this new house then i'll drive 14 miles round trip ugh.

Re: Gettin aboard the Mopar train!!!!
Well I am probably getting it, but havent made the deal yet. The transfer case has issues....it sounds like a broke chain inside when you switch the 4wheel. He took it back and is going to get it looked at by a his mechanic. Hopefully itll be fixed and Ill have it sometime next week.
Im tryin to be patient...its hard!! I just wanted to keep her and hated to give the keys back. :P
