FINALLY!! My ole' dodge is fixed!!! I finally was able to drive it to the cruise-in last night! (only to get rained out, but it was sooooo worth it!) They put a different thermostat in it and it is just fine now. Not sure why it didn't work with the first one, but I am not complaining!
It sure does get alot of attention though. Alot of people don't seem to have a problem with the fact that it is a Girl's truck, but occassionally you will get THE LOOK! I swear, I am about ready to raise that thing and put the biggest tires I can find on it!!! If they are gonna talk, you might as well make it something BIG to talk about, right!? LOL
It sure is runnin' good now though. We had a newer Ford try to out run us today....just in case anyone had any doubts....They FAILED!!
It's about time!!!!

Women in real trucks, my wife drives our Ram 2500 quadcab with the hemi daily as her work truck. When she first started driving it 2 1/2 yrs ago, all the buttheads she works with said, "thats to much truck for a woman". She's still driving it daily and they are in their rice burners. Jealousy is a funny thing . Jim
PS. Sherri, what temp thermostat did you finally install? Jim
