That sucks. You gotta watch those dealerships. They can be sneeky. There's gotta be someone out there that wants that truck. Don't give up JP and don't Settle.

 

Dealers SUCK...I hate them with an absolute passion. I would have said, "do I look stupid to you? And if you answer that I am going to beat you down on this asphalt right here in front of this dealership"....just sayin'

Did you fight at all or argue their dishonesty?

 

I just turned to my girlfriend and said "well, are you ready to go" lol. Then I turned to him and said there is no way I'm taking $7000 for my truck. He said, that's the best we can do. I pushed the paper back to him and said lets go honey lol. That's when he said hang on, I'll go talk to my manager. He came back and said we just can't do any better, yada yada yada were only making $300 profit on that car, yada yada we can do better on a used one. No thank you, shook his hand, and left. I'm a pretty nice guy even when I'm mad

 

More nice than I would have pry been. I've only ever bought 1 car from a dealer, and wasn't real fond of the experience. In fact I got so mad I got up and left, then I thought about it over night and ended up taking the deal. It was either that or keep dumping money into my old one. It makes it hard though when some one calls your trade junk, while yes it was pry "junk", it was still mine lol.

 

Yea i left in a pretty bad mood. This is the second time iv been to this dealership and prolly won't go back.

 

Yeah screw the dealers. Hold out for what you really want, and like I said, don't settle.

 

Well heres some good news for ya Thomas lol. Im not getting any new vehicle for awhile. A whirlwind of bad luck is swirling and it would take a miracle for me to get any vehicle. I could explain it all but Im not gonna bore you guys lol

 

We need to get your dually on the road!!

 

We need to set up a work day at JP's place and get that dually running. We could swap the 7.3 from your other OBS into it pretty easy.


We made it home from that state up North. Truck did fine toting the little camper. You can't really even feel it back there except that the tongue weight makes the truck ride a little smoother. I'm guessing that camper probably only weighs in at about 3500 pounds loaded. Truck ran like it always does, spotty. I'm learning how to drive around the issue I'm having though. At any rate, we made it home. Only one blow out and it was on my buddy's camper. Funny thing is that he had one blow about the same spot on more or less the same trip last year. I put new rubber on our before we left for RRE so I didn't have to worry about that issue. It was a nice week away, but it's good to be home.

 

Yeah it's nice to get away sometimes. I am at Truck Nationals in Carlisle PA with the 1/2 ton for the weekend. Having a good time here...

 

We need pics please!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Sorry to hear that.text me if you want.even if you just want to vent.
Boys...he needs the 250 because its 4wd...the dual lie isn't...need a good enough used PSD for the dual lie and a clutch.

 

Yeah man if you need to talk or somthing, I'll listen.

I was thinking we could do like you said Aaron and get a motor out of a bone yard or somthing. I see them on cl every now and again. But they usually think they are gold. I'm trying to remember that site you tolde you could get parts.

 

Maybe ask Brad. He always talks like theyre a dime a dozen.

 

I'm still interested in seeing the motor that came out of it. Could be somthing simple or over looked. Another set of eyes never hurts.
