I long for my old Dodge V-8 van ... I could beat everyone on the highway with that one.


And I DO have a horse trailer to pull

Wanted to get a Dodge RAM 3500 but they cost so much ....

anyone have any year of Dodge vans that the recommend ?

I gotta decide TOMORROW Monday !

and I AM gonna get another Audi ... some day
