Most important is to make sure your cameras, switch wires, ttpms, dot safety stuff and hitch are in the truck. Nice truck enjoy your trip home.

I find myself sitting in the airport this morning getting ready for the first leg to Lake Charles, JAX to DFW. I’ve asked three separate associates at MD to check the alignment against Thuren specs and adjust the air pressures to 80/65, but haven’t heard back at all.

Looking through checklists and weeding through the threads trying to remember everything that I’m supposed to be checking. Of course I find a meme on the book of faces that hilariously explains what I’m doing (only those of you that have seen Moon Knight will get it).

We showed up early to the airport not to inconvenience anyone too much with the ride to the airport so here we are too at SEATAC.

I tried to attach the Excel Spreadsheet I made from it but it would not let me attach anything but photo's. If you want the spreadsheet, PM me your email address and I'll send it to you

My dealer said they couldn't get it to Thuren specs, wish I could bring it in to work and do it.

“NO PARKING IS ALLOWED ON THE AIRPORT DIVE…YOU WILL BE TICKETED AND TOWED”. I can’t get that out of my head! To many memories at SeaTac.

Questions for any of those who have purchased a truck out of the state of Florida and live in Florida. Say for example, purchasing from Mark Dodge and registering it in Florida. For sales tax purposes how is this handled? Also if the market value of two trade ins which I would have in the deal would wash out the full price of the new truck, I am assuming there would be no sales taxes to be collected for either state. Is that correct? Once vehicle is brought back home to Florida, I am assuming there would only be the registration application fees, tags and title. Any light that anyone has to shed on any of this would be very appreciated. I have not ever purchased a vehicle out of state and registered it in my home state. I just don’t want to find out the hard way. Most of this seems to be common sense but does not always work out that way. Searching online for detailed info about these type things, I seem to come up short. Thanks

Bought from MD, live in Texas.

* MD Handled everything!
* They handled TX sales tax and vehicle title
* I did have to get a TX vehicle Inspection (we hav to do that every year for renewing registration) and emailed them a copy of the inspection report
* TX Plates were delivered to MD, the overnighted them to my home

As far as the trade in, I am not certain but, I imagine the handle everything on that end as well, per state/ fed requirements.

Super easy, super smooth, super simple, they did it all.

I told them it’s a factory thing, but it needs to be aligned before I drive it 700+ miles
