good bye diesel cruze...hello man card
After a little over a year of driving the cruze I decided it was time for a change. In all honesty the car served its purpose well but I was just unhappy overall. Couple that with the most annoying rattle ever coming from the passenger side rear door that the dealer couldn't figure out what it was I made a change. So I bought a 2014 Ram 1500 express with the black out package. It got the hemi and 4x4. It was a left over so I got almost 10k off the sticker and while the mileage is obviously not the same it isn't breaking the bank. At about 15 bucks more per week so its not bad and I am very very happy with it. More pics to come but here is one for now.

I've got a 2013 Express. Only thing I really wish I had was the 8 speed. Love everything else about the truck.

No I didn't. It has the smaller uconnect which works just fine for me.
Thanks nasty

Nice truck, good luck with it! I'm a Chevy guy at heart but I have no complaints with my Ram.
