Nice Karl! (That leaves more Ford's for the rest of us :teasing-poke:)

 

I'll bring a tow strap to pull you Dodge guys out when they get stuck. Here's a picture from my owners manual :teasing-wedgie::laughing-rolling:  (Seriously, all the new trucks are sweet :orcs-cheers:)

 

 

The same owner of the Dodge dealer owns a Ford dealer as well.  Unfortunately they didn't have any Platinum's to look at, but I was able to get into a loaded Lariat and there were certainly some VERY nice options on the Fords.  Adaptive Cruise, Lane Assist, trailer blind spot.... made the decision really difficult, but in the end, I have just wanted a Ram Cummins for a long time.  I like the look of the Ram better (can't get used to the Platinum led's around the lights) and the interior is nicer in the Ram (in my opinion of course)

 

Sure am glad they put front tow hooks on mine, so those Fords can imagine pulling it out!

Ahh I see, Did you get the very expensive diesel filler cap as well? :lol: If so Amazon has some nice billet ones for eight bucks. Let me know for a :text-link:

 

 

Fixed.... thank you!

WHX??

Nice your :text-welcomewave:...Can't beat jungle site Prime...free two day shipping! Mine came with an extra o-ring to get lost in the glove box and magnetic to stick to the back of the filler door when fueling. The o-ring holds it in pretty tight and my wife couldn't  get it off so I greased the o-ring a tad.

I see stretch marks from pulling that house you call a fifth wheel around! :lol:

 That will be our real house soon . . . I retire from my job 6/30/18 and the house goes on the market 7/1/18. We are gonna travel around a bit while we have the opportunity (and I have to start paying my wife's health insurance).  :auto-camptrailer:

I don't think that it will all be ready.  Getting the hitch tomorrow, then have to raise the camper since this truck sits higher than the F250.  So much to do, so little time, but it would be fun to make it to the show.  Would love the company again.

Oh well, I understand that completely!

Hitting the road!  Short trip, but have been itching to go camping with the "horse" hauler :)

Congrats! I'm waiting on my ship to come in to buy a new vehicle. Wife's car needs have always taken priority because of the kids. But, they're all adults now. Next one is mine. :auto-swerve:never had a new one.
