I sold my beloved truck yesterday. I actually almost shed a tear. After being for sale for about 6 months, I found a buyer. Goodbye R/T, hello minivan (or some other lame vehicle) My wife and I now have a 5 month old daughter, so I was forced to get rid of my baby. Plus photography has now taken up all of my cash.

No more burnouts, no more haulin ass, sniff sniff :cry:

few pics:

"so I was forced to get rid of my baby. "

So did you keep the truck then?? Nice truck though, great shots. Hopefully you'll like the feeling of the mini-van. Lot's of room for camera gear.


Canon 40D, Rebel XT, Kit lens, EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM, 50mm F/1.8II, 28-135mm 3.5-5.6 IS USM

Very nice truck man, and i now you pain ALL to well. Had to sell my bike, which was my main mode, when we found out my wife was pregnant. We now have two Jeep Cherokees.

My dad has the bike though, so i can still ride it whenever i can make it down to Houston.

p.s. Beautiful truck, did you have any motor work done ?

Didn't get around to much. Not sure if you know the R/Ts, but they came with a 5.9 360cu in. V8. Only thing I added was the hood, not really engine but it had the airbox, so the filter is basically sticking through the hood. 52mm throttle body, and catback exhaust. I planned on getting headers, intake manifold, computer, etc. But then I discovered photography and that drained my wallet.

Yeah i know about the R/T's got beat by a couple of them that had been built up and my uncle had one. They are pretty mean little trucks, but wont be nothing compared to what i have in store for my little Cherokee (still mopar).

Ohh and i really like the looks of the Shaker hood on the Dakotas.
