take a check and your ramps and some straps, load and drive home. 


looks like a good truck and very good price point from any comps i could find. 

I have a customer car that could be a paid delivery but i think a few hours more south in OH

even better than taking my ramps with to load - he has a set I can use to load the i3, and he'd send with the truck for cheap. so I might have a second pair of those HD aluminum ramps, close if not identical to the ones I bought from Mark and have used forever with Joe.

I do need to make sure readiness doesn't show any flags. If it does, it's probably montana time. I assume a 5500 will force me to commercial insurance anyway, I haven't checked on that yet.

I dont think dash lights matter for that GVW, Jacks doesnt seem to plug my truck in anymore.  just safety. 

Gieco has me as a RAM 1500 i believe for 10 years..... used it for Windshield once no issues.

I dealt with geico for a claim once for my first Ram, I will never ever do business with them. That was a criminally bad experience of empty promises, delays, and silence. Which is great from 1000 miles away from your crashed truck.

I've been with State Farm since and probably should shop around but I'm very happy with the combination of coverage I have if something ever does happen. I've continued to have full coverage on the Ram from purchase to now, and if I'm not driving them for some time I can put it in withdrawn from use and reduce that policy cost by about 50%.

Any of my liability only go to ~$8/mo when withdrawn instead of $35-50 depending on which. historical coverage is also about $8. the full coverages on the magnum, ram, and i3 do add up though.

Why don't u go get it now?  I don't think that kind of opportunity comes up often.

Proof of concept on my 10’ ramps. His are 12’

Aux fuel reinstalled in the i3 (gives gas cap error so had to pull it for inspection)

Ready for Saturday in Ashtabula. Hopefully the dmv in-transit wait isn’t too bad, they’re open 8 to noon. Aiming for 10am arrival.
