Been Busy Lately But I Did It Again

Recommended Posts

I got a new position at work which keeps me really busy so I've only done limited grilling lately and not much time on the forums.

I swore off buying new grills so I couldn't do that again but I never said anything about a new truck. 

 

Me and Mrs skreef wanted to get a bigger trailer (a 5th wheel) and our Nissan Titan was not going to cut it. Back in January I started looking around for a HD truck. Ended up doing a factory order of a Ram. From order date to dealer delivery was about 11 weeks. Here she is:

Ram 3500 6.4 Hemi, 4x4 crew cab, short bed
Laramie lv1, towing technology package, bed utility package, and 5th wheel/gooseneck prep

GVWR 11,000
Max Towing 14,525
CCC 4025
GCWR 21,500

Nice wheels! It’s a good thing you went for the 3500 and not the 2500 emoji23.png. It’s a running joke with my wife and I every time we see one now.

That is definitely a different angle on why not to buy a 2500 - LOL

Good trick - find something more expensive to buy first.  I'm on to you.  This is just a precursor to convincing Mrs S that a 42 is not too expensive after all.  

That said, beautiful truck.  I love the idea of being able to chuck things in the back of a truck and go.  Congratulations.

Thanks everyone. The new position at work has really dampened my grilling (get home to late now). That and we've put all our effort in the new truck purchase and a new 5th wheel trailer we're picking up this weekend. Hopefully later this summer life will get back to a normal pace. 

On another front both me and Mrs skreef got our second vaccine shot yesterday :)
