I know that some of you are thinking about selling your PSD because of the high diesel prices, and faltering economy, so I just wondered what is the average monthly payment for your trucks. I hope that none of you have to sell your truck, but I understand that because of our economy and some job layoffs, some people do not have a choice.
Loosing your monthly payment, and downsizing to a car or truck that you can pay cash for, might be an option to some.

damm tony !
sorry to hear 'bout the break-in(s).

bustin' a window is pretty drastic..
pain in the butt that you cant leave
ANYTHING in view anymore, for fear
of having it (or the truck) stolen.

do you have an alarm ? jimmi jammers ?

i should also mention that i feel your
pain on the break in crud...they stole my
top of the line pioneer head unit a year
ago last month.

Ive since installed a "REAL" alarm system
w/ some multi-level theft preventive measures.

Tony sorry to hear about all the bad luck with the break-ins. Time to look at shater proof glass. Sorry that was mean.

$0.00 on my truck

$190 on Mrs TG's Cavalier.

I don't drive the truck that much. Mrs TG typically get home from her night shift about the same time I need to leave for work. So usually I take her car @ 30+mpg vs the truck @ 16 ish mpg.
