Yup, I learned its best to know how to sign your name with both hands when we closed out on ours. I lost feelings in my hand signing all those papers.

The new truck was nice this morning. Drove from Burleson and the trip meter said 1 hour and 43 min, 5 gal, ave 20 mpg. Had the cruise set on 72 most of the way. Going to be interesting to see how accurate that is. Love the sound of the 5.0 when you get on it to pass! I thought I was driving a Mustang!

If you have not looked at the new 5.0, the air conditioner and altenator are mounted underneath the engine instead of on top. You open the hood and the first thing you notice is how clean the engine is. All you see are valve covers and COPs. Working on the air conditioner will be a pain.

Glad you like your new truck Jim, when are you going to put exhaust on it? I bet you will like the sound of that 5.0 even more.

I don't know when I will or if I will. I'm enjoying telling my wife how I dislike the truck, and how it ain't worth puttting the exhaust and my Roush wheels on it. I can be a turd, at times, just ask her.
