Last Week For The 2009 CASACADIA

Hi folks!
Well this is the last week for my first new truck in a long time. Oh its being replaced with a new CASCADIA but I have gotten attached to this beautiful green truck. Drivers still come up and look her over, and I still get compliments. Drivers let me tell you the CASCADIA along with the DD15 is a great truck. I have drove this cascadia since Aug.2008 with no down time due to motor issues, or transmission or rear end problems All my time in the shop were p.m. services, so I enjoyed no break downs no costly down times. If you are looking to buy,and want a great quite ride test drive the CASCADIA.
Until next time be safe
Dick
