    Default Finally got a proper DD



    Luckily my work is only a few miles from where I live, otherwise paying for gas would be horrible.

    Paying to feed that thing will be hell regardless of how far you travel. Unless you only plan to drive it to and from work and that's it. I wouldn't have sold the bike to get it but still not a bad looking truck.

    For real. Not a wise decision for a daily....

    ...but it is a cool truck nonetheless. Later, QD.

    The back looks a little high? If you live only a few miles from work, a proper DD would be a BIKE

    I have 4 other options if I need to travel, but for home to work and some errands, she won't be too bad.

    Just how the 2wd sits. Had a bike, I'll take protection from the rain, heat, and stupid ass drivers for most days of the week. Had fun dailying my bike when I did, but I'm over it for now!

    Can't say this particular truck would be my first choice, but I'm very grateful for the deal I got on it and how nice it is.

    I was thinking about lowering the rear and picking up some wheels if I can find a deal.

    No use in keeping a bike I'm not happy with. It was pretty, but way too slow.

    Every 4.7 I've had was great. How many have you had a bad experience with first hand? How often did you change the oil and do proper maintenance?

    i used to sell them, and every mechanic i have asked about them, hate them, they are stupid expensive and pieces of crap, it's a high chance the one in your truck has been replaced, any chrysler that ends with .7 are crap, : 2.7, 3.7, 4.7, ill take a 5.9 anyday over a 4.7, but hey u know them better

    Oh shit. I just went and looked at gas prices. It's been quite a while since I've seen them (1999). They've risen tremendously! I'll have to sell this asap! What have I done?!

    I understand that gas is expensive, but I was driving the LS1 Mercedes every day with .603/.609 lift cam and all kinds of other stuff done to it. At least this way I get a/c and radio,lol
