Haven't posted much in a while; last year I succumbed to the temptation to get a quote on my 2019 from CarMax. Couldn't say no after that, as I got more than I paid new. Crazy.

Here's the old flame, on the trail in Utah.

After a summer fling with a Jeep, I just had to get back in a truck again. Which is no easy task these days. I paid for all the profits on selling the gray one in aggravation this year, chasing after advertised vehicles that were either already sold, or being hawked with crazy markups.

Finally found a solid buy from an honest dealer; no BS no games. Did the deal and brought her home.

Many would say the Granite Crystal is a better looking truck, and I agree. But- hot in the desert sun and hard to keep clean. And then there's the pinstriping. So I went for white this time around. That's generally my preference.

So now I just have to get busy on tires, sliders, mud flaps... you know the drill.

I just picked up a 2018 PW in the Granite Gray, LOVE the truck. Coming from a Cummins I was worried it was going to be a big adjustment, low power no torque. Boy was I wrong this thing will MOVE! I am going to pull the RV in a couple weeks for a Thanksgivng trip, looking forward to seeing how ell it does. I will let yall know.
