Not quite. That would be a locomotive, and those pull cars. Except, maybe, in your two track mind. Tractors are specifically designed to pull things with, whether it's a farm tractor or the OTR version. And it's a tractor by default since there's no cargo area, which would make it a truck...

18-speed. Only transmission I could find that has a very low 1st (good for the places I frequented) and enough OD ratio to go somewhat fast on the open road. Anyway, while BULL helped you out, do you know why it's a tractor and not a truck?

And now a quiz for my city slicker friend DavidKFla. Is this a 1) car 2) SUV 3) truck 4) none of the above

When registering an M1009 (military K5) in CA, the DMV insisted on it being a "truck". I wanted the far less expensive car plates. The guy asked "So does that thing have a back seat??" I responded "Yes, it does. It may not have much in there, not even carpet, but it has a back seat". It was...

No, I do not. Thank God.

No, I have one SUV, the Durango. My Suburban couldn't count since the term SUV wasn't invented yet. And I have one truck, sort of, the 3500. I say sort of because it's only a truck when I have the (easily removable) flatbed on it. As the door sticker says, it's really an incomplete vehicle. Of...

Actually, I'm impressed that you didn't use Wikipedia. Or You Tube.

So the Durango has a frame?? I have photos of its undercarriage to prove you wrong. Also, far from all SUVs are classified or registered as trucks.

I have to agree. See one quite frequently since our 'Cats are parked side by side, but when my girlfriend offered me her Redeye I declined. She luckily came to her senses and decided to keep it instead of giving it to me, or a hood change would've been essential. Actually, I would've kept my...

I thought Furds always had built in geo fencing, and that's why they stop all by themselves all the time..

Close, but not quite. There is a gas station quite close to here, but I wouldn't even fill up your Challenger there.

Easily? Should I start asking around how many stations would be willing to switch one of their pumps over to E85? And if I admit that it would be for one vehicle, I really think I know the answer. Hell, I couldn't even get ethanol free 91 octane delivered here (I buy fuel in bulk) since the...

No, never claimed that. Although a larger tank would be great. An E85 version would be, though, since there aren't any stations with that stuff around here.But it would definitely be nicer to sit in a Hellcat and wait for help than in an EV.

I know, but brought the 3500 up as an example of the distances I wan't to be able to drive, and the scarcity of gas stations. So, if the Hellcat would've survived in E85 form, it'd basically be useless to me.

Unholy, I'm not going to let your PMS ruin my day, but there are no EV chargers here. Or stations with E85. Those 200 miles would not work for me, anymore than an EV would. Actually, the one thing I really don't like about my 'Cat is its minuscule gas tank. It'd be a great long distance car, I...

So start sending me the money instead and it'll be yours soon. Although, we'd have to make some sort of arrangement since I really want to free up the garage space.

The fluids will be just fine even if it sits for six months. And better than if you drive it every two weeks without getting them up to temp.

You still have seals there? I figured that the alligators and pythons had eliminated those by now.

Looks like I got 16 bonus hp. Don't really need them, though, since I'm not dragging four dually fenders around.

Same as in my case then, but that won't matter when on the road and the oil cooler starts doing its thing...a bit too efficiently. I'll put a cover in front of mine this winter.
