Kel is mad that you haven't brought it by, so I showed her the picture.  So looks at it and goes - "it looks like the one across the street."  LOL

I would have spent another $10K and have a truck payment.

My plan is to swap this one for the same thing with a cummins in the next year or so.

Lack of cab space last time I went home with dodge.  No room for cargo and another person where it could all stay dry. 

So I bought something that could tow and has lots of cab space.  The downside is I went from getting 18-20mpg to 11-12 (no highway yet).

What it lacks in fuel economy it makes up for in looks department.

Did you end up doing any mods to the Cummins before you got rid of it?
Have you towed with it yet, how does it do?

Why would that thing come get me? 

I have not towed with it yet, this is my first week driving it.  Most likely will tow Saturday if I tow jeep to Farmington.
