Maybe if it were a nice taco or something, but the super duty just doesn't cut it. After a few weeks I'm dying to be back in a car. But buying a nicer DD-able truck is way more expensive than the route I'm going, I think.

Plus I love my 5mt turbo outback. My wife's is a 3.0r automatic, and there's no way I'd talk her into keeping the 5mt over her car since she doesn't drive stick.
Pssh, the obvious answer is to bob the F-250.



They are making a diesel Grand Cherokee. That would make a sweet DD and they depreciate like rocks so they should be cheap in a few years. It could tow, be a DD, and still be nice enough to take the wifey out on the town in. Regardless selling the SVX is a good first step, hope it goes to an enthusiast.
