    Just couldn't stand it anymore :)

    EDIT: found a stock photo on ebay. It's almost as obnoxious as the Ferrari. :D

    I'll get pics of mine tomorrow

    Oh, I see my earlier edit kinda screwed up the post.

    Traded the Kia for a truck this evening. Just got fed up with the Korean Krapper and the dang vibration that they couldn't fix. Besides, I was going to have to replace the windshield from a rock hit on the way back from the BoneDaddy lunch.

    Jayson was up for dinner and he mentioned he was thinking about a F350 SuperDuty, so we went and looked at trucks. After the Ford place we ended up at the Dodge
    dealership and yadayada I have a Hemi Quad Cab 1500 in Detonator Yellow in my driveway.

    If you ever buy a car, take Jayson. It was a kick watching him distract the sales chick and he kept throwing out lowball numbers just to screw with her head. She kept forgetting it was me that she was actually making the deal with. Keep them late and they'll eventually come off their price.

    Got a decent deal, Dodge is running a $6000 off invoice incentive on 2007s and got them a bit lower than that (I'm sure the car salesmen are laughing at me now :D)

    Going tomorrow (errr...today!) to get a spray in bedliner.

    I never really liked the Kia, it was just the 'logical' car to buy at the time. This thing suits me better :)

    YEAH !
    Tried to warn you about the KIA.
    I spent a year in Korea and got a first hand look at their quality ( or lack thereof ).
    But gawd a Hemi ! Hope it has cylinder deactivation.
    Replace the tailgate ASAP with a net or louvered tailgate. I hear its worth a half a mile per gallon which adds up quick.
    Our Armada passes everything but a gas station.
    Now lets work on the Kimi thing. ;)

    Aaaargh. I own it 2 days and curb the wheel. That sucks!


    David, the Hemi does have variable displacement :)


    Hmmm, now which one should I drive to ECN? :D :D

    Doh. I remember it was about a week or two after I got my WRX (first brand new car ever) and I threw a real fit when I curbed it the first time.

    Nice looking truck though, way way better than the KIA. Did you get my email to your gmail about the tshirts?

    Nice move, Tillman. No more hairy eyeballs when you park in the fire lane at the Four Seasons. ;)

    Tillman, the wheel can be fixed almost perfectly at LOD, they have a great guy. Usually takes a day! Looks like a neat truck and OF COURSE it is the correct color for a street vehicle. When I was shopping for a Dodge I was very impressed with Huffhines' sales dept. I was very UNIMPRESSED with their service dept! Look forward to seeing the new ride! Congrats.
