Men and Their Trucks

Exactly.

I was helping pay for DH's truck, and he really doesn't drive *that* much so if we were to take the newer truck on a roadtrip I would be the one driving, AND I do most of the car work around here....it may be his name on the title but that's about it.

Our cars are personal choices. To each their own.

I have a 97 Dodge diesel dually. Wonderful truck, gives us 21-22 mpg.
Bought it used about 5-6 years ago with a weak tranny for $5500.

NEW tranny cost another $1200.00 Remember to ALWAYS replace the
transmission cooler.

Replaced the exhaust pipe and last month, a starter. Put over 60,000
miles on it so far. No tires replaced, no brakes...165,000 miles now.

Second choice would be a Chevy diesel. Pretty nice truck. Never liked
Ford steering.

But to each their own...lot of Ford owners out there.
