I had one of those 2500, great truck, so much torque, great for towing, good milage too.
Bought mine unseen on Ebay, I drove it from Texas to just outside Boston, never missed a beat.
Had a new truck liner fitted, bought a few spares such fanbelt, etc, in some ways wished I never sold it.

No Adam, was on my way home from work at 2 a.m. I cant weigh up why there was grass on the front of the van. Never left the road. didnt swerve or break intil after impact. Couldnt see what it was in my rear view, or before I hit the damn thing. Number plate still up there on the road, if the law wants a word!
The last time I killed a dog, the owner got prosicuted for letting it get on the motorway.
Extentisve damage. Bumber, grill, radiator, viscuous fan, fan for air con and pipes, and bonnet. Goin' in tomorrow to be fixed.

Last time I hit a dog was in the Barracuda. The owner threw a ball across the road in front of it from between the tents at Thorney Island a few years back.

Lucky we were crawling really. Felt sorry for the dog, though. It got away with a sharp bump, a short term limp and crapped arse, but what was it going to do if someone threw a ball for it? Poor bugger.
Of course the owners looked at us like it was our fault. I mean... driving...on a road...at a car show...how stupid!

A friend of mine were about to buy my Durango so I started to look through the web classifieds. I found this 88 635 CSiA and went for a test drive. Previously I've had three E30 3-series and found this one a blast to drive. A very solid car in good condition and a fair price. Well, my friend she bought a Mercedes ML, but the 635 is one of those cars I've been dreaming of for decades so I'll keep it. Rather put the Durango up for sale this winter
It's an 88 with catalytic exhaust and 211 bhp. 195.000 km (120.000 miles), repainted original Lachssilber in 2005/06 and has got some nice options such as black leather upholstery recaro-look seating, auto, cruise, ac and ABS-braking.
