Bought a Real Estate Vehicle

Posted

My real estate career is taking off. Decided to get a more appropriate vehicle for driving for real estate sales. I was driving a lot of miles on the diesel truck. So I got a Dodge Magnum R/T 2005.  Has the Hemi in it. I'll get a pic up soon. But it's kind of a sleeper rig.  345 hp. Very comfortable. 5 speed automatic transmission. A lot more creature comforts than I am used to. After a week I am really pleased with it. Getting over 20 mpg average combined city/hiway driving. Has that system that cuts down to 4 cylinders when cruising. Still figuring out all the features. Dual exhaust...has a bit of a rumble to it. Wouldn't mind a bit more. ?

      I’ve been getting 20-21 mpg with country driving short distances. Immediately following a fill up and freeway drive it was 24 mpg. No troubles yet. One quart of oil and gas is all I’ve put into it. Go

    I'm glad your doing well. This econ seems to be holding up. Wise to save money for the next economic swing Joe. I 've seen a couple too many of them DDT's (darn down turns).

    Because you have to $400 a year to link photos on other sites.

One quart of oil and gas is all I’ve put into it. Got all the car fax maintenance records. New brakes, real axle seal done recently. Very pleased with performance and economy so far.

    Almost bought the wife a good while back. But since she is only 4'10" tall I decided against it. She just could not see out of it. Of course I bought her a freaking Dakota and she couldn't see out if it either. There was not one corner on it she had not hit on something. No more new cars for her.

     Happy things are working out for you in the new endeavor and the vehicle. :thumbup2:
