Post the URL to where that Hemi is, I am sure someone on here will at least look, may be in the market, just saying.
i was hoping for a finders fee of any of the following:
a.) Cabelas Gift Card
b.) Fishing Trip
c.) Pheasant or Elk Hunting Trip
d.) Three bags of fresh roasted Organic whole bean Costa Rican coffee
e.) Picture of Nancy Pelosi bowing and kissing the hand of Trump
f.) scuba diving lessons off the Vurginn Islands
g.) $50 gas card for my ride back from the Dealer

Any takers???

Can we toss some AC/DC in the mix? That was my jam. I'm flying with some buddies down to Tampa in May to see them on their farewell tour. :Big Laugh:
Sure, do some research and drop in a URL. Tho I only dropped the first song to make a statement via the song title, we getting real far away from the topic of thread.

BIG PROBLEM with AC/DC

No way i am listening to "I'm on the highway to hell" when driving for 6+ hours in my new RAM

As a matter of fact = no way i will ever listen to AC/DC again - which i used to in the 80's

But i will listen to 'Cars'

Why? That's when I like it because I like the stereo in my truck. :) Crank it up and go to town!

We do NOT have knowledge just specific opinions. PPL like @Wild one and @Sherman Bird have the mechanical knowledge.

We just have opinions based on personal experiences and a lot of reading and informed ppl in this forum.

MY Opinion only: non E torque ne day of week but that is my thoughts. Yet I would pick even an E TQ junkoka over a Chevy 5.3 eco junk. See varies.

I have no experience with the E-torque trucks,so i don't usually comment,lol.My perferances though are to keep things as simple as possible,so if i was picking one,i'd probably go for the non e-torque truck.But that's only my opinion,as i've never owned a e-torque

4 votes for the non-E-Torque.

Although the new '23 is tempting, I wouldn't touch the E-Torque, with or without warranty.
You can add an extended warranty with Grainger or Mark Dodge, IIRC, if that provides a better piece of mind, I would.

And, tb56 nailed it. Most of us only have opinions created by reading and some technical training/knowledge that crosses over to this automotive/rolling computer world.

I've listened to AC/DC on and off for many decades and some days I can take it or leave it but, when I hear the opening to Highway to Hell or Hells Bells, that's just an invitation to stretch out the speakers a bit. :cool:

I remember watching them in concert at the Ottawa Civic Centre in the '70s, what a great show.
