Hi all,
I am about to pull the trigger on the new truck to pull the "planned" purchase of a Heartland Landmark - Mt. Rushmore!
I have settled on a 2005 Dodge RAM 3500 4X2 Quad Cab Dually Laramie.
Went with a 1 ton dually for obvious reasons but decided on the 4X2 for these reasons:
- Don't hope to need 4WD
- Less cost (i.e. more $ avail. for creature comforts)
- Less weight (i.e. higher tow capacity)
- Less components (i.e. less stuff to maintain/go wrong)
- Lower truck height (i.e. wife can get into the truck easier)
Going with the Light Almond color to better match the tan colors on the trailer.
Working on "best deals" for the truck right now. Current best price is Dealer Invoice less $200 less current incentives.
Jim
