Always liked those. Beautiful restoration. The interior is especially nice. I bet that wasn't cheap. Better investment than a C7, though.

Super nice. I wish I had the $$ laying around to afford one just like that, so I could give it to my dad. He had a 4-door one when he was in college, and always dreamed of getting the top-of-the-line 2-door Victoria some day. But, he was a school administrator, and by the time he took care of all of us, he never had enough money to get one. He's on retirement now, and certainly doesn't have the $$ for one, and I'd love to make that dream come true for him. Not feasable right now, financially though. Really nice restoration.

In case you haven't noticed, the car market IS the truck market. The F150 outsells the largest selling car (Camry) by a margin of almost 2:1. Put another way, the Ram outsold the Camry by almost 50,000 units YTD.
