New truck in the garage

After two years of reading, comparing and drooling, there is a new 2004.5 QC SB Laramie 4x4 Auto setting in my nice warm garage! Thanks to everyone who willingly shares information on this site and helps us "newbies" chose the best truck. I had Line-X sprayed in yesterday and installed Nerf Bars and Husky mud flaps the day before. The only problem is we just got 8-10 inches of new snow, the first of the season, here in Anchorage, Alaska. After living here for over 30 years, I trust my driving and this new Dodge, but scared to death of all the other crazy drivers on the road. Still have my 1994 F-150 in the driveway, so will drive it for a few days. Sorry to be so "long winded," but just had to share the good news!
