    A guy here at work has a 2013 ram 1500 he's been itching to get out from under ever since he burned 30 gallons of gas in 110 miles pulling his camper in a Wyoming headwind. Too bad he's not covered.

    Oh, sorry, with all the rust I thought you were adding extra iron oxide fertilizer to the lawn.

    I have an old 81' chevy. Similar to what you mentioned. I love my newer pickup but the old one is just so easy to own and drive.

    Lots of bondo, that's what I've seen from the few dodges from the early 80s that were still running. That was 20 years ago. Lol
