    The family truckster has arrived and it's bigger in every way....

    400 pounds heavier.... in an age when almost every other manufacturer is employing high strength steel more aluminum or CF that can be used in a lighter thickness to reduce weight for better milage and nimbler handling...

    They better start thinking about making the lanes wider and slower on the Dragon or MINI's will be prevented from driving that area of the country.... Maybe put up lane barriers along the route...
