I just purchased a new tow vehicle today and I'm picking it up this weekend, it's a full size Dodge Ram 1500 Pickup.  Couldn't turned down a good deal.  I'll post pictures after the weekend.

I could never get tired of the Jeep, I've owned several of them and loved each one.
I'm looking to change up and have the truck for tow/camping and an economical vehicle for daily use.
Driving a 5.7L V8 daily is expensive.

Nice - one of the favorite tow vehicles I've owned was the RAM 1500 Quad Cab. Loved that truck...

Enjoy the new tow vehicle !

I have a 1999 Dodge Dakota 5.2 V8 that I bought on Craiglists list for $4000. It only gets 11-12 mpg when towing, but its only used for towing and since its paid for, insurance on it is very low. Would I like something with better mileage, sure, but if I only use the truck 10-12 times a year, how could I every make up the difference in gas for something newer.

Its a workhorse when camping.

Looking Good Joe, I just recently upgraded my TV also, kept my Jeep GC for a daily driver. The GC has 5.2 where the Silverado has a 5.3 not alot of difference in the gas mileage but the Jeep is 4wd and more fun to drive!!!
