    Yep, probably be passing through there middle of the night on the way. I never do the drive during the day... especially with it being the 4th coming up.

    Understandable. Be careful as once you pass the Wickham exit, you will hit a lot of construction between there and Eau Gallie. They are building the new Viera extension overpass.

    I didn't even hand them a license or remember them looking at it. It's really surprisingly easy. Not sure where you're going but I guess they'll ask you for whatever they need if they have a policy.

    They didn't ride with me either. That was kind of nice, gives you a chance to think.

    That's the truth~!

    Remember I paid about 62% of the asking price for my truck. Don't even think about paying sticker. Of course if you're doing in-house or buy here/pay here then you don't have much choice though.

    sweet yeah im just dealing with a little dealer that's seriously over priced like a 2000 379 exhd for 29,900 with no signs of a rebuild done but i just want to see how they ride when and if i buy mine im going down to orlando way cheaper. I found a 2000 379 exhd with recent rebuild beauty of a truck very well taken care of for only 23,000 but i aint going down there anytime soon
