Doesn t the donut flour stand out too much wearing all black ?

Yeah it does....some times I change twice a day...but who's counting

Bought a 2024 Ford Maverick hybrid last spring to compliment the hellcat. Been using the Maverick as a "daily" even though I don't log many miles and it's been great. Very useful having a truck and even more so when I can average 42MPG (more money for hellcat).

I intend on running that into the ground along with the hellcat and avoiding another car purchase for many years.

September 28, 2023 when i got my Hellcat. Had 6 miles on it when i took delivery.

2105 Challenger Hellcat. I would like to buy a new truck but nobody makes a 1500 Extended cab with an 8' bed. Short bed trucks are worthless (to me).

That's not a truck...that's a BUS

Okay, if a 1500 with a real bed is a bus, what is my girlfriend's crew cab longbed? Or my 3500 with a longer wheelbase and a 9' bed?

No you're not, Man in Black

Although I can see how you city slickers feel that a car with a little bed on it (a 1500) is long. The Smart and other micro cars exist because of people like you.

very simple...all viable places for you to pitch a tent and bed down...when she gets sick of yer shit and boots ya to the curb...You know it's commin)

 

[Jimmy N.]

She may pitch a fit, but that won't make me pitch a tent.

If anything I'd go sleep in the toy hauler - which a 1500 could only dream about being hooked up to.

I will say that the bed on my 1500 is about a ft. shorter that it should be for practical purposes

Of course not...most days ya never leave the back yard...

Hey, I put about 250 miles on the V6 Challenger today. Would've liked to take the real one, but it's still on hibernation insurance. Didn't feel like paying 80 some dollars for one short drive.

9' bed? I never heard of that! It will never fit in my garage! That's a serious pickup truck.

Ah, but it's not a pickup. That's the beauty of a cab and chassis, you get a longer (flat) bed. Plus a longer wheelbase, higher fuel capacity, and other useful things.

But it sounds like you need a bigger garage.

It's was 8'...he nailed on a 1' extension..

With the exception of his Mopars.....all the other vehicles he's bought are Government surplus..

You are correct, you can never have a garage too big!!!
