We've been out on the water the last two days taking advantage of the 65-70 degrees days here in Seattle. It's the best way to practice social distancing!

Just so you all know my boat does leave the garage for a treat once in awhile. Here's proof. So I went and filled her up with some good fresh gas 87 no ethanol for a $1.25 baby!! She took just over 30 gallons.

Very sharp, Akor and gorgeous view, mn. That shot of Seattle is hard to beat, though. Took the ferry from Bremerton to Pike Place area once when I was out there working, pretty breathtaking.

BB - that Durango is a really sharp tow rig, they look great together! Citadel w/ the Hemi?

I'm a Mopar guy myself, sold and did secondary finance for a couple years out of college for a dealership and have since had a Ram, a Grand Cherokee, and currently a 300C. All hemis, of course. I put miles on like crazy and man that motor runs hard.

Thank you!
It is a 2019 R/T with the Hemi. Srt would be the bomb! It pulls pretty good. The wind does push it around a bit though. The wife is not a fan. She likes the big Suv Suburban or Yukon or Escalade.
For now this is What she gets. It's fun to drive though. I also work at the FCA dealership. Not a Mopar guy but hey. My son has a Ram now too. Slowly converting.

Super clean. Yeah, those SRTs are really nasty. I had a customer in Chi once upon a time who had a 911 and an SRT Jeep and said the SRT was more fun to drive. Quite the statement I thought.

I can understand not enjoying the feeling of towing with the unibody, but the day to day driving has got to be more fun. I never was a huge Dodge/Jeep/Chrysler fan growing up, but after having a handful of them and test driving what seemed liked everything on the market I sit here with 96k or so on my 18' 300, purrs like a kitten.

Yea the Srt makes a good tow vehicle. I very rarely drive the car. I drive the hybrid clown car. For some reason the mpg always seems to go down once I get in it. My 15 year old gets to learn how to drive with it. How lucky is he 😂
He likes it when I jump on it. It's really fun from 60 to 90. I back off at 90. They really are pretty bullet proof engines. The 8 speed trans is very smooth.
The shorter wheel base is taking some getting used to when backing up with the boat. It's all good. We will see how this summer goes.

The lake looks great with the all the ice out. My son and I might drop the SeaDoos in today and take a spin around the lake with our thick wetsuits on. I saw a handful of boats out on the lake yesterday afternoon just as the last of the ice melted.
