A Real "Cowboy Cadillac"! Beautiful......But that 06 you had is the best Dodge truck ever made! Hope they gave you a ton of money for it.....
Well the 06 still ran well at 135K but was showing its age with rust through paint in wheel wells plus a lot underneath from all the brine they put on roads. Plus tach didn't work, heat wouldn't blow on floor, tires at EOL, hail damage, and body damage from lady hitting me in mall. I pocketed the money from insurance claims and dealer gave me only $14,000 less in trade-than I paid 9 years ago plus $9000 off MSRP. I could have got more off MSRP, but since they gave me $4000 above average trade-in, it would have been just shifting the numbers.
Now this 2015 is leaps ahead of the 2006 in technology and I'm already loving the truck. First 250 miles at I'm at 18 MPG on the lie-o-meter which I'm hoping is pretty accurate. Hand calculated I was getting 16-17 with my 06.
