I’m still looking for a truck.
I wasn’t very impressed by the rev hang that the new Tacos have. Drove me fucking crazy. I know it’s a truck, but I still was thoroughly unimpressed by it. Especially since I’d be forking over $35,000 for it. So, I passed.
However, I recently found something else that I’d like. Enter the 2014-2016 Ram black express. Hemi, 4x4 and blacked out. They’re priced well and now it’s a matter of either finding one locally, or finding a !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! at a comparable price.
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
That’s it from me for a while, my quest for a truck continues.

You’ve gone from taco trucks on every corner to bro(ish) truck on every corner

That’s pretty much my truck except it has the non-LED + projector lights and a dial instead of column shifter. I love mine.

GF and I like the Current Gen RAMs better than the new Taco (she has a 2003 taco sr5 4x4 now)

Yes and no.
Yes because I didn’t buy anything.
No, because I thought I’d found myself a Taco, but the rev hang was a deal breaker so I backed out. I didn’t post because I thought I knew I had a new truck in the bag.

I had a work friend who had someone hit her 2010 Jetta, and while it was in the shop, she got an Audi A3. Since she didn’t need or want 2 cars, she decided to sell the Jetta. She took it to carmax and they offered her like $2700, she wasn’t happy with that.

$14,000

How much did you want out of it?

Wasn’t that a $21k car? Your less than 1 year old Jetta has lost a third of its value??

That sounds like a “this is what you get for wasting my time” offer.

I paid $17,000 for it.

$15,000
So not far off.

So are you gonna sell it to them?

I still liked the idea of an OBS diesel F250, if you could find one that wasn’t outrageously priced. I ended up getting all of $3500 for my 2001, because rust.

I’d still like one, but they’re a bit more truck than I need.

V10 TDI Touraeg.
IT’S A PATH DIRECTLY INTO DESTITUTION BUT DON’T EVEN PRETEND LIKE YOU DON’T WANT IT

Depends. I’d much rather trade it in.

They’re looking really promising. Not too sure about Uconnect 5.0 though.

Not bad!

That’s pretty much why I bought the car. There’s no way in hell I’d pay $21,000 for a Jetta haha.

You can still get them for 2017, they’ve just moved to an option package on the Express trim.

That’s a looker!
Someone at work just picked up a full on poverty spec (Tradesman?) Ram 1500 4x4. I’m trying to find out who it is because it calls to me strongly. It appears to have almost all the amenities my Crusty (95 F150) has.

Maybe but it’s not like paying $17,000 has worked out either.

That’s a good call. I bought mine because I wanted it, I never needed the diesel.

Like truck tax is one thing, but diesel tax is a whole new playing field haha.
I still want one at some point though.

Well, yeah that too.

All aboard the Black Express!

I’m a Chevy guy, but I do really like how Ram runs their exhaust out through the bumper. If I were to get a Ram, it would be exactly how you spec’d it.
