The boys are right Steve. If she sets foot in one of the new higher end units, you won't have to sell her at all. Just bring your checkbook and pen...

Those pens they give you are only 1/4 full of ink. You think they could afford full ones...

I don't recall right off, but it was expensive. The same company also built one several years ago for Continental Airlines that looked like an airliner and was even featured on Modern MArvels on History Channel. They build everything from the smaller backyard variety smokers to large trailer mounted ones for exhibition and competition.

Actually the Fiat has done well towing so far. It is not going to be comparable to my tuned/deleted '11 unless it goes on a diet and gets some tunes, but I was impressed towing. The torque management is no where near as noticeable towing as it is unloaded. I was pleasantly surprised towing with the Cummins.
