    I had a 2008 GMC Sierra and before that a Honda Element. The Honda was ugly as hell but awsome on gas. I needed a truck got the GMC because of the good deals with rebates, but it got only 10 MPG. It had to go!!

    Have I posted in this thread already???

    I had a '97 Dodge Ram 1500 utility truck. Not tilt wheel, no cruise no carpet. Standard cab with standard trans and a long box painted forest green. Was nicknamed 'The Rusty Pickle' as it was rusty, bumpy green and long. Thought about getting a red tailgate for it when i monkeyed mine up and change the name to 'Super Pickle' but it never happened.

    Wow, too many...lets see here. 1996 Dodge Ram, 2002 Chevrolet Blazer, 2001 Dodge 1500, 2001 Dodge 2500 Cummins, 2001 Dodge 2500 Cummins again...and thats all in my short 5 year driving career. I guess i had to go through enough to realize tacoma was the way to go. No more MOPAR for me, although I love me the sound of a diesel! Duramax, perhaps;)
