I had read somewhere that for the last 10-15 years, the big money makers for the US Auto groups have not been the cars.
You’re liable to get a Kia these days in a Cracker Jacks box.

The big money makers have been the trucks.

The big money makers were the SUV’s, you have a basic truck pan and body, you add 2500.00 of interior, sheet metal/plastic, and doors, and you sell it for 20,000 more.

I should have specified truck and he is buying it used not brand new.

Does the hemi really improve performance that much? Just curious :)

I should’ve added in a car used for just driving and hauling, not racing :)

He test drove one with a hemi and he hasn’t been the same since. I think its because my Durango outruns his truck and he’s just looking to one up me...;^)

Can get anyone an X-plan with Ford. Just need name, address and last 4 digits of SS security number. It just takes a couple of minutes, and saves $$$.
