Sweet Truck

[Haykakan]

I just bought a Dodge Ram 1500SLT. It will be delivered tommorow and i cant wait to pick it up. Yes it does have a Hemi in it and a 4wheel drive and crew cab but the most useful thing for me was the rambox feature. It allows me to put my tools in a lockable compartment without taking up space in the bed of the truck. I need this feature for my business and it only came in the higher end packadges with the hemi and other features. The test drive was pretty impressive. The truck performed awsome! Accelerated like a race car almost and handles like a car vs a truck. The crew cab has room to sit three big guys like me plus the two in the front. I am pretty excited about the truck but also because of incentives, my friends employee discount(friends and family) and my trade in, the price came down to a managable level for me. I bought a bad ass truck for the same price i paid for my V6 Jeep Grand Cherokee 8 years ago. The buying experience was very loooooong, it took all day to get everything they wanted paperwork wise. You dont sighn this many papers when you buy a house. I cant wait to use this baby, it will make going to work fun!

I thought the rambox was supposed to be used to store the beer during tailgate parties

Re: Sweet Truck

Very sweet! Is it gas or diesel? If gas, does it run on that e85 stuff too?

Re: Sweet Truck

Its regular fuel and i dont think i got the e85 option but i will ask today when i pick it up around 5pm. They convert cars to take natural gas instead of the regular fuel in hayastan and it saves them money but i wonder if you can do it to a truck and i wonder where i could fill up if it was possible.

Yeh but cutting it up is the fun part

Re: Sweet Truck

I haven't seen too many E85 stations around. Regular fuel contains up to 10% Ethanol anyways. It's all a gimmick. I would like society to move away from mass usage of fossil fuels as well just so I can hoard all the premium gas to myself . As long as there is crude oil in the ground and profits to be made, our reliance on fossil fuels isn't going away anytime soon. There is probably enough oil stockpiled for the next 20-30 years but the markets get jittery everytime some oil field gets blown up. So don't worry about those polar bears that are holding on to their last piece of ice floating on the arctic. Pari or ov kordzazeh!

Re: Sweet Truck

Ethenol is pretty bad for the car's engine and it is not environmentaly friendly either. We do more damage to the environment making ethenol then using regular fuel. There really is no good solution today and its not because its impossible its more because the powers that be do not want us to stop using gasoline yet. As for my truck i was pretty disapointed when they told me it was being delayed and would not be available for pickup till the morning of tommorow. I was at bass pro shop today and was chekin out the new boats they have. A new boat would be sweet with my new truck but im just daydreaming for now. I told my wife that i bought a new boat to go along with my new truck and she almost had a heart attack. I have a old bassboat that is great for fishing inland waters but i stick to the bays in the great lakes. Would be nice to have a boat i could take the family out in along with some friends out on the big water. Cant wait to pick up my truck in the morning.
