Thank you all for joining me in my "happy" party!  I love the banana's!! And now we have a crowd of smiley's doing the wave.  We should have all of those (and the popcorn smiley) in our list. 

To those offering advice on trailoring...YES...we need the advice.  Right now, we don't know exactly what kind of trailor we'll use to tow the challenger.  But as we get a little closer and ready to deal with it, you know this is the place I will get ALL my questions answered.  Thank you for the offer and I will definately take you up on that!

One thing we discovered is that it was difficult for me (5'5") to get up into the truck!!  So, we installed some Westin step bars which really made it easier to get in and made it look pretty cool too.  Man, you can really spend a lot of money on all this Ram aftermarket stuff!!  Wednesday morning we'll drop it off to have a Line-X liner put in. 

Redline took some more pics today in the daylight (some tonight).  MikeTyler...the gas mileage is hovering around 14mpg...but we've been kind of putting it through some, uh, well, shall we say, high performance testing.  :grinyes: It's been a lot of fun...I'm still smiling!!  ;D ;D ;D

Here are some pics.

Rev, my wife is only 5' even. I bought a 99 Ram 1500 2wd and she said that if it wasn't for the grab handle on the passenger side A pillar she wouldn't be able to get in the truck. There's no handle on the drivers side so I guess if she wants to drive she'll have to get in on the passenger side and slide all the way across! ;D

A little late  :thumbs:reply Redline and Rev, but just to let you know, that truck is choice. Good call on the bedliner. Better than Rhino IMO.

Hey Rev, just be sure to always have those spandex type trousers on if you get in with pants, LOL, I have a hard time getting in my son-in-laws Ram and I'm 5' 10". Would love to have that truck, the interior is awesome! Wish DC could build their cars as awesome as their trucks. They probably do but they all look like their trucks!  :thumbs:

Thanks for the kind words!  As far as the Chally goes, we sure hope so.  Right now, we're working on getting the a/c figured out.  Putting in a "universal" Vintage Air unit and it's requiring a lot of head scratching right now.  After that, finish up the engine bay, interior and exhaust....then we'll light it up and see what happens.  I can't wait!
