2001 Dodge CTD completely stock had 70k on it when I purchased in 2006. It now has 147k on it.

Repairs to date; serpentine belt, thermostat, replaced original batteries, rear differential leak. At least half of my mileage has been towing my 21' bass boat.

I could use a long bed 3500 dually now but then that would require a new 10' NL and I would have to get rid of the current truck....would love the T/C but getting rid of this truck just ain't gonna happen!
