My second truck is a 1997 dodge with a little over 200K miles. It rides, steers, and runs like a tank. Has a big ole 360'ish engine in it. She fires off every time I need her to and goes down the road...rough! I use it when I"m doing some kind of funky work that I don't want to corrupt the 05 with. Hauling dirt, mulch, pig chit, whatever.
