Brought home my new Bighorn today. Very happy with it so far, just from the 75 minute drive home from the dealer. Lie-o-meter says I got 20mpg on the trip, with all of my speeding up and slowing down and acceleration for break-in, etc. 3.21's are not nearly as anemic as I was worreid about, after going from my Rebel. The bigger bed is going to be SO much nicer for what I need a truck for these days.
I've got a couple of 1200 mile road trips coming up in the next 2 months, we'll see how I like it after. It was definitely an internal argument with myself between keeping the Rebel and "downgrading" to the bighorn, but for what I do these days, I think it was the correct responsible choice. Got home from the dealer and pulled the Challenger out of the shop and washed and shined it up. Taking it to a local show tomorrow, first one since replacing both quarters and rear frame rails and paint and brand new interior. Should show well...if it makes it. First real road tirp of the thing too, so wish me well.
