Hey, i bought a Diesal 2500 Dodge P-Up in 1999. I sold my place in Miami and
had the bucks and ordered it. It is 4x4 and that has been great here on the
Mountain. If has been raining there are places on my property that it takes a
4x4 to get around.

I also did two loads from Miami using my 16 foot trailer.I hauld my Alpine 24
up here and i also hauled a load of fire brick.I got 15+ miles per gal on
that trip. I usually get almost 19 miles per gal normally, which is going up
and down Lookout Mtn all the time.

I also haul manure for the garden and yard.It has been a great truck. It
weighs 7,000 lbs.I was in a wreck and i think it saved my life.It was $16,000
damage to the front end.
