A long way from any surf here in Canada but thought this might be the place to post this. Picked up a Dodge Ram as a rental, yeah it's the redneck in me but who cares.

This is thing rocks!! 5.7lt Hemi, sitting on 110km/hr it's using 9lt/100km, awesome sound system, seats as good as any lounge chair I've sat in and takes off pretty well when you put the foot down. They apparently switch off cylinders when they're not needed so some times you're only running on 4 cylinders. Can't believe how cheap they are over here compared to back in Aus, we're getting ripped!!

I found this one gathering dust, trying to strike a deal.

Ahhh you are in Canada, interesting about that car switching off cylinders. It has the same fuel consumption as my xtrail.

Yeah took a pic today while doing just shy of 120km/hr and still at only 8lt/100. Also a few other pics of some cars that are going up for auction due to the owner of the business going bust. They told me the 56 was valued at only $24k.

Yeah mate original factory black.I was actually after a early 50s ute and was going to sell my current ute and came across this sedan in Just Cars,I just kept looking at it all the time and kept going back to it.Seeing I already have a ute I thought nah i'll get this put both old cars on club rego and keep my SS uteI do like the black with red rims Mac but there's heaps of them around so I'm going to paint the rims Light Grey like the dash in it with stainless trim rings just for now!...

A bloke just round the corner appears to have just got a really nice orange Chevy ute. Saw him parking it in the garage last weekend & I was tempted to hit him up for a photo op but I was running a lil late for work...will get a piccy or 2 for ya sooner or later though. Looks really nice in that colour

Sorry I realise this one neither old or a surf wagon...but it is a classic
Like the plates also, normally dislike plates which say what the car is but in this case I think it is cool, Mr Bond
