Parents Mystery Truck

[RamThatStroker]

Well guys it looks like my parents have pulled the wool over me. The told me today that they had ordered a 2003 Ram 3500 4x4 SWB Laramie in October from Jim Hall at Bossier Country in Texas and we’re picking up the truck tomorrow from a local dealership. They had me believing that they were thinking of purchasing a truck for a couple of months already and just now admitted their secret. My father has asked me to put in a recommendation for Jim Hall to all of you here. He said Jim is the best salesman he has ever dealt with and is willing to work with anyone no matter what, but would extend the best possible deal to people from TDR and DieselTruckResource. My father completed the deal all over the phone and just received all the paperwork for the truck and will be sending it back tomorrow. He said that this has been the easiest vehicle purchase he has ever done. So if any of you are thinking of purchasing a new Dodge give Jim Hall a call at 1-800-Bossier and tell him that Joe Silva sent you.

Well guys I finally got some time to tell you how my parents and I are liking the truck along with some pics. The truck is way smoother and feels a lot stronger than my 95. My parents love the truck but my mother is afraid to drive it for some reason. I think she's a little intimidated with its size but oh well I guess. Truck has been returning a constant 17. 5mpg - 22mpg on its first tank of fuel. One thing I've noticed with the new truck is that the steering is light years ahead of the older models. On center feel and steering wonder is nonexistant. Another aspect that surprised me was the sheer weight of the truck. At the local big truck scale "Blue" was #7,700 pounds with a full tank of fuel and me in it #200. Well anyways here is some pics of the truck taken from the Dodge website. I don't have a digital camera so actual pics are out of the question but the truck is identical to one shown minus the bed cover. Before I forget I thought I'd give you some numbers on the truck before any rebates or special promotions or taxes and fees.



MSRP: 42,995

Price Paid:37,125
