I've already got most everything I need to complete it.  Being a single father, its just a matter of getting time to work on it.  Last night Nate came over and we got some more done.  We were going to do more tonight, but my son was not feeling very well.  If all goes right, tomorrow I'll finish the steering.

I know this is probably old with the going back and forth, but Jenns volvo just died so I went out and bought her a 2012 Nissan Rogue for $35k so time to get rid of some toys. Price is still $12K.

Also, if anyone is interested I have a 2009 Yamaha Raider S which can be bought for the payoff (~$9800 but I'll look if someone is seriously interested) Has Vance and Hines Big Radius 2 into 1 pipes and a power commander. ~2K miles.

Just got an offer of this today... Thinking maybe tow rig with clean title and when funds allow, full buggy on trailer type setup? Lol.

Its a nice tow rig & will pull almost anything you put behind it but even when empty expect to get a best of 12MPG. When towing will prob be in the 8's. A Desiel would make a much better tow rig due to much better fuel mileage & tork for pulling. Loaded or unloaded expect fuel mileage around 15MPG.The resale value is low on the Dodge V10's due to the horrible fuel milage & price of gas (Thats prob why he is selling it). Its an exelent engine with the same trans (48RE) as the Cumins. The V10 was not produced very long (95 to 03) because everyone wanted the Cumins. The Ford V10 was smaller at 6.8L but was slightly more powerfull & reved much higher but they dropped that engine in 05. Not telling you it's a bad truck but just trying to help you make a good choice. Good luck.

05 Ford came out with the 3V 6.8 V10 bumping it up about 75hp and 50 ft/lbs over the earlier 6.8's.

If you're talking a straight trade for your Jeep Gary, then it would defiantly be a no vote for me.
