RE: Got a New Bowhunting Ride.
Nice lookin truck Rob.I took a good look at one last week at the dealership and really liked it,The interior is sweet as well.
Whats the gas mileage for that thing,?I do know its an 8 cylinder putting out 300 ponies---just wondering,havent looked at the tag close enough though.

RE: Got a New Bowhunting Ride.
minnesotahunter, yes, the lines of truck impressed but the inside is what really sells the truck..it's laid out wonderfully and this is a LE and has all the bells and wistles except the gps..didn't want that.
Jamiebuck, the house and truck isn't everything my friend. They can go in a heart beat but what makes me have it all is the love of a wonderful, gorgeous lady to share it all with. The material things can disappear quickly, they are nice to have butnotall life needs.
Reflexkid, the Tundra is a nice truck as well, what impressed me there was the rear window was electric and went down, in my Nissan the middle window goes down electrically rather than having to lean back and open it...that's a great feature.
extreme1, yup, great all around truck, inside and out. One doesn't buy a truck for the gas mileage.
One should go with a little car...[&:]but this is rated the same as the rest...about 14/18 depending.....but your right about one thing...the ponies are amazing....fasted off the line of all the full size trucks and it shows. It continues to impress me.

RE: Got a New Bowhunting Ride.
Those are some great trucks. My wifes uncle bought one last spring, and I was very impressed with it. They look good, perform great, and are built for stout. Back in June he hit a deer with his. Going about 45, and smacked a doe in the front end. All it did to the truck was break the plastic license plate holder, and put a very small dent in the chrome. You really have to look to see it. Good luck, I hope it serves you well.

RE: Got a New Bowhunting Ride.
OK, I've been drooling over the log house since it was in the beginning stages of completion, and now you've gone and bought my favorite truck... and in my favorite color, at that.
Looks really, really nice, Rob -- especially with the house as a backdrop.
