Hey Smitty,
I have to agree with you there about Dodge quality, as my cousin
said (Who has a '93 Dakk with 233,000 miles on it, and still drives it
every day, and hasn't had to replace anything on it) about the only way
to get rid of a Dodge truck is to wreck it, because they don't wear out
very easily.
Later-
Bruce
