First Birthday!

[Ray Torresdal]

One year old today! 42,500 miles, 18+ mpg for every gallon of fuel burned to date! The biggest loads to date are only about 14-15000 gross with trailer, which I know isn't much. Quite a few miles with 3000 lb. load in the bed. Original Michelin tires look like they have about 25-30% tread left, brakes and everything mechanical seem fine. Reese rails and gooseneck go in next week, so larger loads may not be far behind.

The only problem to date is that the lid on the center console - won't stay open. Dealer has several on order for different customers.

Would I do it again? You mean there are other choices???

May you all be as pleased with your vehicle choices!

Man that's good to hear! Mines a whole 3 days old. Just turned 300 miles. Haven't even put a tank of fuel in it yet! My 95 CTD was amazing. Traded it in with only 70k on the ODO. 90% of it was towing. Truck never missed a beat. The only thing it did was rot out it's fuel supply line. If our newer trucks are anything like my old one I'll be happy indeed. The harder I worked my 95 the happier it got...
