Truth be told, if I wanted to have something for light duty hauling,
that's the type of truck I'd get. Pretty easy on the gas, isn't it?
As it is, if I can't tie it up on the roof of my car (I'll pick up a
few 2x4's to support sheets that flex.) I just get it delivered.
For what I do now though, I can't justify a single duty truck.

The 3.0 V6 is a bit thirsty and underpowered at the same time (148 hp)
I can't justify mine either since I sold my sailboat last August, but I
still have one year to go on the Rangers lease.
We just signed the papers for a 2007 Dodge Charger SXT for my son
tonight. Maybe he'll let me drive that on occasion.
"We just signed the papers?"


Yeah... I bought it..... he'll eventually buy it from me. I should have
said I bought it. Since he's only had his drivers license for less than
three years, insurance premiums are too outrageous for him to buy any kind
of half decent car himself.



When I bought my first new car the dealer was doing the financing and
they wanted me to have a co-signer. They asked about my father, mother
and anyone else. I told them if I needed a co-signer then the deal is
off. They called 15 minutes later and asked me when I would like to pick
up my new car. Insurance killed me. I was making $16,000 a year and
insurance was about $750 a year. A couple of tickets and an accident
within 4 months of each other were the cause.
