Default Brian's newest toy...

Been searching for a new/used truck for a while now, and yesterday I went to a dealer to find out about possibly locating a new '06 since it's the time of year to get rid of them. They just happened to have this one setting on the lot tho and I ended up getting a pretty good deal on it. It's an '07, 2500, 4x4, SLT, H.O. Cummins. Brand spankin new, built on Aug 22nd, had 12 miles on it yesterday when I showed up. Anyhoo, I'm extremely happy with it so far, very smooth and QUIET! First tank of fuel was a little over 18mpg, so that's not bad at all for that brand new engine and just random driving around, they say they start getting a lot better mileage after 15-20k miles when they start getting broken in good. Should be a lot nicer driving cross country in this than my old one. Can't wait to get back out there in January! Just thought I'd share, have a good one!

Brian

Damn nice truck Brian! We are sure loving ours. With me driving dayly traffic we are getting 18Mpg and Steph got over 21Mpg on a trip to Oly in rush hour traffic.

DAMN glad we got the diesel! The room of the Crew cab is hard to beat!

I know you will be loving it. Like going from an old ford to a Caddy

Enjoy!

Dammit Ellis! I wanted to wait at least a little while before doing that! You know you can't say something like that to Ryan!

Just think of it this way. It will give you at least a month or two to save up the cash. There is still the munchkin to eat up part of that booty he used to spending so maybe it will slow him down enough to get a little closer

Here's my latest toy.....but I like yours better!



3.3cc's of nitro burnin' fury! This stupid thing is a money pit from hell. I've already spent more than the purchase price on mods and spare parts, lol. All my new header money for the Z is now gone.
