Yes We Did!

But it wasn’t the plan for today, really!!

IMAG0070[1]

We went to the Chevy dealership this morning – but we were just looking! Well, we didn’t think there was going to be any temptation because Harry had checked the inventory online, and didn’t see what he wanted in stock. So we were just going to talk to the sales guy about when they would be getting more in and what kind of options their trucks had. Then we got to the dealership and, lo and behold, there were three on the lot. White, silver and grey, but we liked the grey.

One test drive later and Harry was hooked!

…and I have to say that I’m pretty happy we made the move now because we got 0% financing. Can’t beat that!

Another step closer!! Open-mouthed smile

(By the way, all the pictures were taken with my phone – I thought they came out pretty good!)

    I'm assuming that's the Duramax Diesel with the 6 speed Allison Transmission. If it is, that's a perfect choice and you should be able to pull whatever 5'er you decide to buy.

    I don't think that smile will be coming off Harry's face for quite some time.

    Congrats!

    A BIG step forward. I guess going to the rally really motivated you. Maybe I should get Craig to one!

    Yup!! It's the Duramax Diesel with the 6 speed Allison Transmission. I believe it will serve us well.

    We are really happy with our Duramax Diesel - great choice - they are also quiet, not like the Dodge diesels!

    Great news about the truck. That is one more step done. Before you know it you will have that 5er and heading on down the road.
