675 Miles and a KILLER MegaCab

Yesterday a buddy and I drove over to Lexington, KY to watch the Cats SPANK Ole Miss in Rupp Arena...Long drive (675 round trip) but its worth it..

Anyway the Cummins was great...19.23 mpg...Would been around 21 probably but traffic in town knocked it down...

On display in Rupp was an '06 Megacab 1500 Hemi BUT...This thing was decked out in full UK trim All I could say was WOW!!!!!

I snapped some pix with my phone..Enjoy:


Wide shot...Note the rocker panels...Custom wheels too


Rear Shot...Stripes and logos, and dual exhaust


Custom leather captains and a console...Upgraded from Laramie trim


UK badges, and killer striping...the stripe was chrome with embossed lettering


There was also a Wildcat hood ornament and a UK logo in the grille....Too many other goodies to list.......Man, this thing was beautiful.....Good gosh did I want it BAD...


Sticker was a mere $59K...Can be purchased from Freedom Dodge in Lexington

Hmm. I don't think that that hemi will get near the mileage your CTD did. I could be wrong though.

If you want to post up images like he did. Host them from a site. http://www.imagevenue.com/host.php or http://www.imageshack.us/ . Get the URL from the image by right clicking on it and going to properties. Then come here and type in [img]Insert IMAGE URL Here[/img] that will let everyone see the picture like the thread starter posted.


Nice looking truck. I couldn't see my self riding around in that foreign substance vehicle(gas) though.
