    I can sit in the back mostly comfortably, but the bottoms of the seats are a bit low.

    I went that route because I wanted a 6-1/2 ft bed and 99% of the time I'm driving alone. A crew with the 6-1/2 ft bed is awfully big. Probably would have had to take a set of shelves out of the garage for it to fit. Plus this was cheaper.

    I do like the look of the current gen Sierra. Not sure if it's reliable enough to spend a lot on it though.

    The wind is insane here. Lost power twice. I feel like I should crank the heat the next time it comes back in case it happens again for a longer period of time.

    First day in the year I've had this house that I've lost power.

    Ya I actually drove it from Bloomfield to westfield without a plate this morning but I figured the fact that I have the title and receipt in the passenger seat with a time stamp on the receipt that I may get some leniency if I was to get pulled over.

    And I must not have realized it was observed on a Monday every year.

    I'm hoping to do well this year as my week last year was a washout with bad weather all week.
    Here's a teaser. My 25 pounder from Pa.

    I'm loving mine but I am not a car/truck guy like you guys. I'll never mod it, wheel it or anything. If it can tow and I like how it looks, I'm good. To me, vehicles are disposable anyway. If ever I don't like something about it I'll just get something else.

    Probably yes.

    Edit-

    FWIW, I may be driving a Ram soon, so I'll have very little room to criticize your redneck-ness. The dealership called me back and left a message on my voicemail and right now they're within $1500 of where I want them to be. If it works out we'll be a pair of redneck oddballs in here, lol.

    If you wanna do some legal wheeling make an account on the forum at exploringnh.com

    I can either jerk, or do yard work. never both at the same time.

    I can't think of any weather I'd want to be running 26 miles in :rofl:

    Judging by my track record I won't keep it long enough to worry about that. Especially since the truck I'm haggling over has been fluid-filmed, and I'd continue the tradition.
