Just found this site. I've had a 2004 Dakota, 2012 Ram 1500, 2016 Ram Sport and now as of2 weeks ago 2024 Ram Limited 1500. Benn retired for almost 3 years and loving it.
Welcome, nice truck! I think your friend must not have driven any Studebakers... I had a '64 with a 259, and that thing was bulletproofBeing how I ran a "few" Chrysler, Dodge dealership Collision Centers, I'm pretty much hooked! LOL Went to work at a Chrysler dealership in Los Angeles in 1981! Back when Chrysler was struggling to survive. One of my best friends made a comment, "OH great, you drive Studebakers, and you're going to work for a Chrysler dealer" LOL
Those Avantis were ahead of their time. My Dad used to talk to Ron Hall, seemed like a genuine guy, never got too full of himselfHD, Nope he has had Studes all his like, has his father's GT Hawk that was purchased new! I still have my 63 Avanti, 4 speed & supercharged. Plus a 64 Daytona Convertible. (waiting on that one to come home)
