I had planed on ordering a 2018 Longhorn but found out the order banks were closed until the 2019 reveal in January. Since I needed a truck sooner rather than later, I found this beauty and had to bring it home. 2017 Sublime Sport, one of the 3000 special edition. 3.92 rear, 32 gallon tank, Alpine speakers, NAV, RamBox, running boards, air ride... who could ask for anything more. I got a rocking deal since it's almost the end of the year and the truck's been sitting on the lot since June. I have a BakFlip hard tonneau cover to add next week. Makes a nice addition next to my Plum Crazy Hellcat Challenger. Now i just have to figure out how to get the daytime running lights activated.

Yes if you look closely, that's the tail of a 1970 Plum Crazy R/T Challenger in the garage.

Congrats on the new truck!!

Just curious are those colours popular in the US? Just asking because over here the sublime green and the orange get discounted big time cuz no one is buying them

In this day and age of full disclosure, I should also add a picture of the other car in the garage:

DSD_2193.jpg

1934 Packard model 1100. Restored by someone else 15 years ago. I've only owned it for two years. I have to say it drives a little differently then the truck or Challengers. Handling sucks, slow acceleration, top speed about 60 to 65, and it's not happy about doing that for very long, mechanical brakes that take a whole lot of effort. But still a fun car for short drives to local ice cream cruises.
