 Subject: Just got my truck back

Message:
Hey all,
I'm stationed in Germany now, & just recieved my truck from the shippers. I cruised from Wiesbaden, Ge to Hanau (about 65 miles) averaging about 115 mph. That was awesome!! All those little BMWs & VWs just seem to move out of your way when you ease up behind them at 100 + (might be the fact that I'm about 3x their height.) I'm still looking for a good deal on the 4.7 L HO cams & intake, so if anyone has a good line on a dealership that ships internationally, I'd appreciate it. May even be willing to share some of this German beer for some help.

I am sure it is fun passing them Germans in a Dakota, I bet you can't wait to doctor the motor up with them cams and Manifold, they will hear something rumbling up behind them, and pass them at 120, screaming, with a low bellow American Muscle sound.
must be fun, to show them an American Dodge Pickup,
one damn fine truck at that.

Bubba,
You done brought up some sweet memories of my time in Frankfurt. While I wasn't sporting any American muscle at the time, a roommate had a li'l Escort GT and it was pretty sweet cruising the 'bahn at 100+. Best we could do in the Army CUCV's was 80mph downhill with a tailwind.
Had a Sgt with a German SAAB and we would cruise the 'bahn at 160 quite often....ohhhh the memories.
Been to Sachsenhausen in Frankfurt yet?

I think I'm gonna' have to back out of it for a while. A fill up cost me $50.00 on Thursday, & I'm already down to 1/2 a tank with 168 miles on the trip meter. This haulin' a$$ is a hoot, but having to fill up every 5 days will suck. I know there's a few Dak drivers over here, so let's hear from you.
