    Completely serious. It's registered as a pickup, so don't need a CDL.
    As you know, I tend to run into stuff when towing, so Jennifer will be driving it.

    Always wanted a real truck. It's even got a air horn

    Wonder how the neighbors in my condo complex are going to react to this parked in front of the door?

    Congrats! Nice truck. I've got a FL60 that's my hauler. If you're near the North Shore of MA, I can suggest a really good indie shop that keeps my truck running and doesn't break the bank.

    Abhi, you never cease to entertain me!! LOL All you have to do is stick the Miata on the back of it. You dont even need a trailer!! It is a sweet truck. So what ARE your plans with it? Where are you going to keep it? What are you gonna pull with it?

    Jeff,
    For now, going to use it haul my existing 26ft enclosed. Jennifer is planning on starting racing again, so we may be buying a two car trailer.
    Planning to store it at Matt Kessler's shop, but he does not know that yet.
    Dave Maynard at 3D who I bought it from, says he got 13mpg. I was only getting 15mpg with the Chevy Duramax, so it should not be too bad.
    It takes 30 quarts of oil for an oil change and has a 170 gallon tank.

    Larry Churchill is coming over this weekend to teach me to drive it. There sure are a lot of buttons and switches on the dash.

    Abhi,

    First congratulations on a great looking tow vehicle. Secondly, don't focus too much on figuring out how to drive that thing. I'm hoping for some more close races with you this year.
