Time to go

On Christmas Eve Eve, my sweetie came home from work and said, "Let's go get you a new truck"! So, I struck while the iron was hot.
We got a new 2020 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 Bighorn with the 6.7l Cummins. Not top of the line but very well appointed.
So, I'll be posting my 2005 with 258k soon in the for sale section as well as on other for sale sites.
Everyone on this forum has been so supportive and has helped me get the truck running great. Thank you all!

Some of us are lifers and sometimes things are only meant for a season. Congrats on the new Cummins, hope your 6.0 goes to someone who will appreciate it as much as you did.

I was planning to be a lifer.
I have done a ton of work and it is crazy sad to see it sitting there, especially since I have worked so hard to get it in the shape it is now.
I still drive it and I know it will serve someone well.

Well, heck, you are both confusing me now. Is the wife 60?
